A More Promising
Path Forward
We believe in the potential of every person to transform themselves, their families, and their community.
This isn't just a safety net. This is a safety network.
The Judge Dinkins Educational Center provides juvenile vocational training in Davidson County for adolescents who might be at risk or engaged with the juvenile or criminal justice system. The Center’s programs are supported by social and emotional learning and focused on sustainable, hands-on education for long-term employment.
We are constructing hope and opportunity for priority youth who are engaged with the juvenile or criminal justice system. With your support, we can change a child’s life trajectory through engagement and empowerment.
