Meet Jonas.

A second chance. A stronger path forward.

After being caught drinking alcohol on campus, Jonas was referred to one of California Youth Services’ Alternative to Suspension school district programs. Like many teens, Jonas struggled with peer pressure, family stress, and difficult choices that began affecting both his school performance and home life.

With support from CYS, Jonas attended our JADE program, participated in monitored drug testing services, and received counseling through Pathways Community Counseling. Through accountability, encouragement, and family support, Jonas began rebuilding trust, developing healthier coping skills, and learning how to rise above his challenges.

Today, Jonas is making positive choices, reconnecting with his goals, and discovering new possibilities for his life.

Look for our weekly email newsletters beginning in October to follow Jonas’ story and learn how he overcame obstacles to rise above his challenges.
