Training for educators, parents, youth leaders, and communities

Helping Young People Build Connections and Take Responsibility for Their Actions

Youth Transformation Center provides practical, proven training that helps adults guide young people through conflict, strengthen relationships, and create healthier communities.

Three Programs. One Goal: Healthier Responses to Conflict.

Our programs help young people develop connection, accountability, empathy, and the skills to move forward after difficult situations.

Classroom Connection Circles

Restorative Justice Conferencing

Address conflict through accountability and repair.

A guided process that gives everyone involved in a conflict a voice, helps young people understand the impact of their actions and create a meaningful path forward.

Boomerang Motivational Training

Student Testimony

I was just talking about the [Boomerang] training that I did at Life Skills [Center] as a student 15 years ago that changed my Perspective on life. So thankful for the work you two did to put this together and for your courage to come in to a school with kids going at each other and we learned to work together. 

Our Mission

We provide high-impact training and tools to teach youth and young adults to take responsibility for their actions and contribute to a healthier community.
