Background and Discussion:

Beyond Your Limits (BYL) is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization that offers prevention and intervention services for at-risk adolescents between the ages of 10-17 years of age. Beyond Your Limits provides back-to-school assistance each year along with helping at-risk adolescents to be positively involved in our community.

 

The donations from Beyond Your Limits to the Functional Family Therapy HCJPD Health Services program will provide participants and their families in need of assistance with school supplies and backpacks.  These items will provide educational support to elementary and middle school youth as they return for the 2024-2025 academic year. In order to receive the donations from Beyond Your Limits, youth must be actively enrolled in the Functional Family Therapy HCJPD Health Services program.

 

Expected Impact:

The school supplies has an estimated retail value of $3000.00. The new backpacks full of essential, grade-appropriate school supplies will assist with making schooling more accessible to students in need.

 

Alternative Options:

 

Donations from another external agency would be sought should this opportunity not be available.
