A WAKE UP CALLThese alarming statistics should be a wake upcall to our communities, schools, churches,courts and parents.

The need for prevention and intervention programs to rescue these young males andyoung females is critical.

Our program can be successful in assisting theparticipants in their mind alternating attitudesand behavior.

YMWFC PROFILE Young Men and Women For Change was founded in

2006 by Shawn Mahone, Sr. for the purpose of providing organized and instructional training for young people to help them transform their lives.

Mr. Mahone recognized that hundreds of bright males and females were not reaching their full potential because of unhealthy choices and lack of direction, support and discipline. He knew something needed to be done after reviewing the statistics of young people going through the court system, listening to the daily news and witnessing the behavior within the community.
