about Rebound Ministries, Inc.
Rebound Ministries Inc. is a mentor training program for at-risk youth. Our goal is to motivate and encourage young people to understand and believe that they can learn to rebound from the challenges and adversity they have faced in their lives and move forward to lead more productive lives of hope and purpose. The Rebound Ministries, Inc. program does this by proactively investing in the lives of at-risk youth and personally mentoring, motivating, and encouraging them through a seven-week, faith-based curriculum. Throughout the program, participants are taught valuable life skills as well as technical skills that increase their chances of being successful in the fast-paced and peer-pressured society in which we live. Each week of the program focuses on one of Rebound’s seven core values and guiding principles: Resilience, Endurance, Boundaries, Obedience, Unity, Need, Deny
To complete the program, participants must complete a written assignment describing what they have learned from the Rebound program and how they plan to use what they have learned to better their life. Upon completion of all requirements, Rebound students attend a graduation ceremony and reception where they are presented a certificate of completion. At that time, they are also connected to valuable resources and services to assist them in their efforts to stay on track and become responsible and valued members of their communities.
“I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”
Romans 12: 1-2
WHAT WE DO
EDUCATE
We encourage and motivate at-risk youth to recognize and develop their talents and abilities while equipping them with the critical life skills embedded in the core principals of R.E.B.O.U.N.D. Beginning with an emphasis on Resilience, meaning the ability to “bounce back” from adversity, our program stresses the importance of Endurance, Boundaries, Obedience, Unity, Need, and Deny.
MENTOR
We mentor young people at all stages of their life. While many of them are in the system, our program participants are challenged to focus on re-entering society in a productive manner, through a life changing process having been, “transformed by the renewing of the mind.” -Romans 12:2
SPORTS
We have seen firsthand that sports can teach a lifetime of lessons. Through mastering a particular skill, making a bad play, or losing or winning a game, these young people learn about resiliency in life, regrouping, and not giving up. Through various summer camps, we capitalize on using sports to teach empowering and vital life skills.
