The LYFE program is designed to teach youth personal responsibility, self-regulation, goal setting, healthy decision-making, a focus on the future, and the prevention of youth risk behaviors.
Louisiana Youth For Excellence (LYFE) was created to promote positive youth development and to build awareness of the consequences of at-risk behaviors for today’s vulnerable youth, such as children in foster care, children in poverty, and children in juvenile detention centers. Prioritizing our most at-risk youth first, our goal is to expand statewide and provide our positive message to all students throughout Louisiana.
LYFE works with schools, non-profit and faith-based organizations, parents, and the community to teach goal setting, leadership development, character building, and integrity.
