Every day, 22 veterans don't make it home.

This month, our Pack did 22 of something every week to make sure nobody forgets. This past Monday, we walked State Line Avenue with Ben’s Heart Ministry Ben's Heart — youth, families, and new friends all moving together for the ones who gave everything.

Swipe through to see it the way our youngest Pack member experienced it. 🇺🇸

Every kid has had something to say that they couldn't get out.

Volume 1 of the TFL Comic Series is about that moment — and what happens when someone in the room notices and makes space for it anyway.

This is what we're building in Texarkana. A place where young people practice using their voice before the stakes get too high to stay quiet.

Read all 10 pages. Then ask your kid: when's the last time someone made space for what you had to say?

Ben’s Heart Ministry challenged us.
We accepted.
At our TFL meeting, we stopped everything, watched Ben's Heart Ministry's video about the 22 veterans we lose every day to su***de, and then our youth got on the floor and did 22 push-ups — together.
Not because it was assigned.
Because when you teach young people that leadership means standing for something beyond yourself, they stand.
Our founder served 8 years in the Marine Corps. This cause is not a hashtag to us. It is personal.
Now it is your turn.
We challenge Bridging the Gaps of Arkansas to complete the 22 challenge and pass it forward.
22 push-ups. 22 prayers. 22 miles. 22 of anything. Just do it. Share it. Keep the chain going.
To every veteran who is still fighting a different kind of battle — TFL sees you. Texarkana sees you. You are not alone.

They didn't do it for a workout.
They did it because 22 veterans lose their lives to su***de every single day — and our youth needed to know that.
Today TFL dropped and did 22 push-ups for the 22 veterans we lose daily. Not because it was assigned. Because when you teach young people that leadership means standing for something, they stand.
Our founder is a Marine Corps veteran. This cause is not abstract to us. It is personal.
To every veteran who made it home and is still fighting a different kind of battle — TFL sees you. This community sees you.
You are not alone.

CAPTION:
What happens to a kid who learns to lead at age 8?
They speak up in rooms where everyone else stays quiet.
They walk into opportunities already knowing how to carry themselves.
They turn around and bring other people with them.
They become the kind of person their community needed — and didn't know how to build.
TFL is not just a program for right now. It is an investment in who your child becomes over the next 10 years.
Every life skill taught. Every time they step up. Every session they show up for. It all goes somewhere.

At TFL, you will never get a surprise phone call wondering what happened with your child.
That's not an accident. That's the system.
Here's exactly how we keep you in the loop:
Every pickup ends with a verbal debrief — before you leave, you know how the session went. If something comes up, the conversation starts face to face — not over a voicemail. Our doors are always open — parents are welcome without an appointment. You always know what's coming next so your child can come prepared. And you are never just dropping your child off. You are part of what we are building.
TFL doesn't work without parents in the loop. So we built the loop on purpose.

Most kids graduate knowing how to pass a test.
Very few know how to work with other people.
Not because they don't want to. Because nobody ever taught them how.
At TFL, social skills and teamwork aren't a side note. They're built into every single session — through real situations, with real peers, under real pressure.
How to listen before you speak.
How to disagree without shutting down.
How to carry your weight on a team even when you don't feel like it.
How to step up and lead when nobody asked you to.
These aren't soft skills.
They're the skills that determine whether your child thrives in every room they walk into for the rest of their life.

Texarkana is full of young people with potential that has nowhere to go.
Not because the potential isn't there. Because the right space hasn't always been available.
TFL exists to change that.
We are a youth leadership program built in Texarkana, for Texarkana — serving ages 8 to 18 with structured programming, real life skills, and a community that believes in them before they believe in themselves.
This isn't a program imported from somewhere else and dropped here.
This is ours. Built for this city. For these families. For these kids.
