TTMES stands for “Take Trips Mentally, Emotionally, Spiritually.”
As the recidivism rate among youth continues to rise, we must ask ourselves, "how do we deal with negative starts that don't steer us to positive travels?"
When youth of color are released from incarceration or detention centers, they often lack adequate support systems, care, and guidance. We aim to empower youth of color and provide the tools necessary to heal from the damage of the incarceration system. We are committed to healing the hurt and providing the foundation that they need to succeed. Learn more about the TTMES mission here: https://taketripsmes.org/about-us-1
