THE SEE FOREVER FOUNDATION WAS CREATED TO OFFER A HOLISTIC PROGRAM TO TEENS INVOLVED IN THE JUVENILE JUSTICE SYSTEM. AT THAT TIME, COURT-INVOLVED TEENS TOLD THE ORGANIZATION'S CO-FOUNDERS THAT THEY WANTED TO EARN MONEY, LEARN MARKETABLE SKILLS, AND GAIN RESPONSIBILITY. WHEN THEY RETURNED TO SCHOOL, THEY ALSO WANTED TO ATTEND SMALL CLASSES WITH TEACHERS WHO CARED ABOUT THEM, AND THEY WANTED HELP MAKING HARD DECISIONS.
