The 16 week class will start on August 18, 2018 and will graduate December 8th, 2018. The VIDA Academy is designed for “at-risk” youth between the ages of 11 and 17 ½. It will help youths learn how to make better life choices and take responsibility for their future.

VIDA is designed to redirect “at-risk” youth with issues such as defiance, anger, failing grades, truancy, family discord and substance abuse. VIDA incorporates physical fitness training, impulse control, life skill training, emotional management techniques, parent-teen and conflict resolution. Participants are referred to VIDA through the Juvenile Courts, schools or by their parents.

VIDA is an opportunity for participants to work with law enforcement and other community-based organizations to create positive influences in their lives that will encourage them to succeed.
