Six high schools, a whole community of support, and a new year ahead for our Next Gen students. So grateful for the students, families, mentors, and partners who came together to start the year!

Thank you Dallas College and the West Dallas Center for hosting us and thank you to Simplicity Catering DFW for providing our delicious brunch!

Our first Edge gathering of the school year was all about connection and fun! And a whole lot of laughter.

We’re thrilled to have our Edge students together again for our monthly get togethers!

We have the best volunteers around (in our humble opinion)! These are some of our newest mentors at training, getting ready to join our returning mentors for another year of connection, community, and mentoring.

A group of our Edge college students came together at the start of the school year and helped us welcome and recruit new high school students into Next Gen.

That’s what community looks like at Journey Forward: Students supporting students, mentors showing up, and people making space for what comes next.

North Texas Giving Day this Thursday, September 17, and our goal is 150 donors showing up for our students.

A $2,500 matching gift is available, helping your donation go even further.
Give now through September 17 and help us reach 150 donors!
