In Conclusion• The teens experience what they might

have otherwise not experienced outside of the Star of Hope: Teen Program– The teens not only learn about other

cultures, they get to experience them– The teens not only learn about Texas

History, they get to see it for themselves on the many field trips to Texas monuments

Conclusion• The teens learn about Character and

Habits in the “TLC Leadership Class” facilitated to them every Monday through Wednesday.

• But above all, the teens get to smile and forget the situation they are in, they are empowered and shown that they have the power and ability to help others, even when they themselves are in a hard situation.
