Trailblazers In Adolescent Care

We help young teens discover themselves and their awesome

We target the middle school population to encourage life-changing experiences for students in south metro Atlanta powered by the performing, visual, and culinary arts. 

In our family-style learning environment, we provide a safe space that engages young teens in exploration of themselves and their relationships with others. Through creative expression, they discover who they are, how they’re wired, and their reason for being.

Join us as we pursue our vision of community sustainability, educational advancement, and social development so that our youth gain a positive sense of self, family, and community.
