At Living Well Youth Works, we teach life skills to at-risk teenagers in Frederick, MD free-of-cost. In July 2015, we secured a partnership with The Housing Authority of the City of Frederick to teach life skills to teenagers in their Lucas Village community. Our program leaders teach middle and high school students the basic skills that are required to become productive members of society; concentrating on the topics that are not often taught in K-12 educational settings.
