Standing Together As Pillars

Standing Together As Pillars (STAPP), a Faith-Based Community Organization that I am proud to serve as President/CEO we are dedicated to providing spiritual, emotional, educational, physical, and social development for youth and young adults ages 10-24.

STAPP works with multiple Faiths and Churches to bring together communities, organizations, businesses, and government agencies to help young people who are experiencing challenges that can leave them physically, emotionally, and spiritually broken.  Through our various programs and services, we strive to create a safe and supportive environment where young people can develop their skills, pursue their passions and build meaningful relationships with family, friends, peers and mentors.

Our mission is to focus on young people who are dealing with mental health issues, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, bullying, health issues, depression, alcohol, drugs, gangs, peer pressure, social media, academic problems, victims of crimes, and violent crimes.

STAPP’s strong values include Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-Control. Additionally we prioritize other important values such as Trust, Respect, Integrity, Truth, Strength, Justice, Life, Mercy, Hope, and Wisdom.  Our primary objective is to develop young people into strong, respected, and educated individuals with high moral values.  This is achieved through providing them with tools such as hope, a vision, a voice, direction, guidance, and leadership skills.

To achieve our mission, STAPP offers monthly workshops and one yearly conference with certified professional trainers in areas such as health and wellness, biblical studies, self-esteem, mentoring, education, job career and finance management. 

Our goal is to provide personal development tools to youth and young adults to help them handle life’s challenges and break the cycle of poverty and disenfranchisement. By equipping them with hope, a vision, a voice, direction, guidance, and leadership skills, STAPP aim is to empower theme to succeed and thrive in in their lives.
