Business Outlook

Pros

Great mission, effective and best practice programs that really do save lives, filled with some kind hearted and passionate individuals Who are FULL of skill and talent.

Cons

Executive leadership is not reflective of the diversity amongst the young people Trevor serves. They are also in a very corporate state of mind, which is how they run the organization. Not at all close to the actual work that is done to achieve the mission, just focused on those who get the org money. Very little room for growth.
