About Us
We're On a Mission to Make Sure Our Youth Succeed!
The Eye of the Tiger Foundation is a non-profit youth development organization. Our mission is to provide our nation’s youth with the resources, skills, and opportunities to become socially functional individuals; to fulfill their highest potential; and to optimize their contribution to the development of their families, communities, and our nation.
The Eye of the Tiger focuses on the at-risk youth in our community, including:
- Middle and High School students – ages 10-16 years old, including those who have a history of truancy and disciplinary challenges.
- Youth who have been identified by the justice system, law enforcement, and other government systems as being “at-risk” of incarceration, for repeat infractions, including incidents of gang activity and gun violence.
At Eye of the Tiger, we believe that no one must be left behind and that's we've dedicated our expertise and focus on:
- The Incarcerated – particularly those youth who will soon be returning citizens and are being prepared to be reintegrated into society.
- Juvenile Offenders - who have not been incarcerated, but are repeatedly in situations of crime or in the company of criminal offenders.
