NEW DIRECTIONS
New Directions serves teenagers interested in the arts. The program is structured to assist them with their transition into adulthood and independence.
New Directions uses theater arts to help develop
self-esteem, self-respect, and work skills. This program also enhances survival skills and helps the young participants to prepare for self-sufficiency
through job readiness.
Created and produced by Jackie Taylor,
New Directions is an innovative program which addresses the myriad of problems that youth face in their everyday lives. The program teaches theater insights that help to strengthen cognitive, work, and social development skills.
New Directions has proven to be highly effective in helping youth work toward self-growth and development, while supplying problem-solving tools to enable them to overcome obstacles
and barriers as they gain independence.
The program builds self-esteem, pride,
self-respect, self-awareness, and instills motivation. It helps our youth to understand who they are and where they are going.
