OUR SERVICES & PROGRAMS

Village Engagement Program

This is our community engagement program. We provide the youth with opportunities with our projects and other organizations so they can accumulate community service hours.

Big Uce Dine Against Bullies

This is a service we offer for students who may be having issues with bullies at school . We know the schools can only do so much. So we work with the parents and the school to set up lunch dates so some of our mentors come and eat with that student and eventually talk with both parties to find solutions.

Big Uce Mentorship Program

This our main program with the youth. This is our mentorship program.

Youth/Young Adult Compass Service

This program is for schools, local entities, and other organizations that work with youth. With our expertise and skills we excel with youth and even the most challenging. We want to amplify our impact by teaching other organizations the same knowledge through our workshops. Message us to inquire for more details.

Support System Advancement Program

This program is meant for the whole family. If you want to learn how to be an even stronger family with a better dynamic, then we have tips and little tweaks to ensure that.
