"Nonviolence means
avoiding not only external
physical violence, but also
internal violence of spirit.
You not only refuse to
shoot a man, but you
refuse to hate him."

 Who said that?

"We will consider ourselves
successful when we have helped
a high-risk teenager in danger
of turning to the streets make
a U-Turn to a better future and
a U-Turn to a better Life."

Motivate, Educate, Graduate, Graduate, Graduate!

  U-Turn 4 Life, Inc. will: 1) find ways to motivate and generate excitement within high-risk young people using their own talents and their own dreams, 2) be located in the afternoons on Community Colleges across Massachusetts creating a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment while introducing young people to Institutions of Higher Education, 3) provide tutors and mentors from Colleges, Universities and communities to teach and inspire young people academically, emotionally, spiritually, and creatively within the TV/Video, Music, Dance, and the Performing and Fine Arts disciplines. 4) introduce our young people to professionals within those fields who can provide training, guidance and advice, 5) encourage and support our young people as they stay in school and off the streets earning their High School Diplomas or GEDs, and Community College credits, 6) enroll our young people immediately upon high school graduation or G.E.D. completion in to a local Community College so they can continue to "Image the Possibilities" and see "Gateway to the Dream.", and 7) pave the way with our partnerships and associations with 4 year Colleges and Universities to continue those dreams and to increase those possibilities.
