Providing a professional artistic environment where youth can develop occupational <br />skills and life skills that are necessary in the working community. This has directly <br />impacted both the Anaheim community, (which has a high rate of gang activity and <br />violence), and the surrounding cities, including Santa Ana (35% of our participants <br />are residents of Santa Ana). By providing our services to youth during critical hours <br />when they might be prone to negative influences and behavior, youth engage m <br />productive activities that keep them away from unproductive activities. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Providing positive role models through one to one adult mentoring. These help to <br />build healthy self-esteem, stronger family values, and productive citizens within the <br />cOlmnunity. <br /> <br />dO <br />
