A meaningful moment around the SAM family table. ❤️

Yesterday, we gathered for one of our final staff meetings with Scott and Hanne Larson before their retirement after 39 years of faithful ministry. Their leadership, encouragement, and unwavering commitment to young people have shaped countless lives - including our own. The stories shared were all about the power of love in their lives - and ours.

Special thanks to all of the young people in our vocational reentry who have been creating handcrafted gifts to appreciate and celebrate Scott and Hanne!

We are grateful for the memories, the lessons, and the legacy that continues.

After nearly 39 years, Straight Ahead is stepping into a new season of leadership — and a continued commitment to young people impacted by the juvenile justice system.

The torch is being passed.
But the mission remains the same.

Hope. Relationships. Presence. Transformation.

Thank you for being part of a ministry that believes no young person is beyond hope.

Today at the Bring Back the Trades Expo in Londonderry, New Hampshire, sponsored by F.W. Webb Company. Our Northeast crew didn’t just attend - they got in it. And it was inspiring.

They stepped in and got hands on with some real tools and real trades. Electrical. Plumbing. HVAC. Masonry. All great paths - all real possibilities. Trying on a new future!

How does getting clear about your intentions help you pursue your vision for the future? Ready4Life grad Jaileen nails it. Knowing who you are. Knowing what you want to be. Knowing what you want to have. Knowing how to get there. 🔥💯

Substance abuse recovery is about more than just avoiding drugs and alcohol -- it's about building a life. We're so grateful for the time these young men in our Brockton Youth Reentry are taking to connect with each other, to address trauma, to build trust and communication, and to find hope together!
