IGNITE is a voluntary no-cost mentoring program that provides services and opportunities for youth involved in risky behaviors, high-risk street activities, or community violence.
The IGNITE team works with young individuals to intervene and prevent risky behaviors and violent activities. Individuals work through mental health struggles to address violence in St. Lucie, Indian River, Okeechobee, and Martin Counties.
Individuals work with staff to build a foundation for a successful future. Staff help individuals make positive community connections, get involved in extracurricular activities, help with tutoring and job readiness, connect with counseling, and offer peer mentorship.
