One Heart’s success is found in a holistic approach called the Second Chance Pathway, which equips youth with the skills and tools needed to navigate life successfully while surrounding them with a network of healthy adults and peers to coach them in the process.
Social and emotional intelligence learning provides the foundation upon which the experience is built. One-on-one mentoring, life skills and gap skills training follow, along with job training and employment opportunities, and a number of reentry services. This comprehensive approach results in transformation: changing lives, reducing crime, making communities safer, reducing drains on financial resources, and breaking the cradle-to-prison pipeline.
