Parent of a Child

If you are a parent of a child who is struggling in school, making poor choices, and/or is demonstrating aggressive behavior, Desert Edge has a program designed to help you and your child overcome any barriers of success. We provide mentoring and utilize positive reinforcement to show your child the potential they possess. We work to instill respect, positive self-image, individual responsibility, teamwork and leadership within each youth. Once a youth enters Desert Edge Mentoring, we work to show them continuously that we believe in them and they can succeed.

Samantha

"My name is Samantha*, and I am 17 years old. For me, life has been full of challenges. Growing up, my mother and I struggle to have a healthy relationship, and I didn't know my father, because he is incarcerated before I can remember.

Samantha

I was placed in a group home because I caused physical abuse towards my mother. There were talks about placing me into a foster home.

Samantha

Today, I'm a high school senior currently averaging a 3.8 GPA. I am focused on changing my life for the better as I approach adulthood.

Samantha

With the help of Desert Edge Mentoring Services (DEMS), I've come to believe there are people out there who want to listen to my struggles, understand, and most of all, who care about me.
