The work of TRAIN is so important in offering early intervention to young people, by giving them a safe space to congregate, raise awareness of societal risks and dangers, and in providing positive activities to support them making better choices going forward.

TRAIN does such incredible work for local young people, providing them with a place to feel safe and supported. Their team cares about helping everyone reach their potential, and it shows. I am grateful for everything they do and am proud to stand behind their efforts.
