In close partnership with the Arizona Governor’s Office of Youth, Faith, and Family, Familia Adelante addresses pressing social challenges and promotes positive outcomes for youth and their families. The Familia Adelante Program is a comprehensive initiative providing targeted support to at-risk youth aged 10-14 and their families within the communities served by three Tucson school districts. Participants gain deeper understandings of the risks associated with substance abuse, empowering them to make informed decisions and taking proactive steps to safeguard their health and future. By providing opportunities for parents and youth to work together on meaningful projects and initiatives, Familia Adelante cultivates unity and shared purpose, strengthening familial bonds and promotes a supportive network of peers and mentors.
