Resources for Families

Positive family connections help youth do better in their education and treatment. JWTP supports positive family involvement.

JWTP hosts events to allow youth and their families to spend time together. These include a Mother’s Day brunch, a Father’s Day barbecue, graduation, cultural events, a school open house, and many others.

To learn about upcoming events, contact our camp counselor.
