About this service
Expressions, is a multi-component life skills program that utilizes the Arts to facilitate resiliency and success in youth at risk. Since the development of the Expressions Program of the Arts in 2004, well over 1,000 youth have had the opportunity to develop a greater respect for themselves and others, experience success and obtain life skills necessary to increase their resilience; thereby, decreasing factors that place them at risk of substance use, early school drop out, involvement in the sex trade, chronic unemployment, youth homelessness and anti-social behaviors.
To date, youth living throughout the HomeBridge Community have participated in art, music, dance, drama, circus skills, digital photography, kickboxing, Parkour, Tai Chi, yoga and videography classes. For many this offers a creative outlet for their emotions that they have never experienced before and an opportunity to feel valued and connected.
