About Us
Union County Kids was founded on the principle that "it takes a village to raise a child". The real village is founded on strong parents, supported by family, friends, churches, schools and the local community. Union County Kids' mission is to create student change agents who will become community leaders that support the building and maintenance of local and global communities.
Our Impact
We're a small organization with a mission to make a big impact in Monroe. We are taking a proactive approach to the violence that is plaguing our community by putting the public back into public safety. The incidents of gun violence are increasing and must be addressed by “us” the citizens. We can provide a solution to this problem by teaching ● Goals and Vision ● Anger Management and Conflict Resolution ● Leadership Training ● Self-Esteem Counseling through community partnerships.
Our Mentorship Programs
Our mentorship programs include educational opportunities that support conflict resolution and de-escalation. We seek to address the root causes of gun violence by promoting conflict de-escalation, enhancing community engagement, and fostering cooperation among all stakeholders. Our goal is to create a safer environment by employing both preventative measures and intervention strategies to curtail the rise of gun-related incidents and violence.
