About TLC
The lack of resources and support for youth mental health services is alarming, especially considering the numerous and complex challenges our young people are facing today. TLC’s emotional wellness program is helping to fill this gap by equipping teens with essential life skills and coping techniques that combat issues like suicide, anxiety, depression, bullying, school violence, substance abuse, and addiction. Through strategic partnerships with educational institutions and community organizations, TLC empowers adolescents with the tools to build emotional intelligence, strengthen problem-solving skills, and develop resilience. Our “I Am Me” curriculum builds character and leadership skills while fostering personal growth, responsible decision-making, and adaptability. By equipping youth with essential life skills, we help them cultivate a healthy identity, manage emotions, achieve goals, and navigate life’s challenges with confidence—ultimately setting them on a path to lifelong success and well-being.
