Description

 

Plan-It Life, Inc., is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Riverside, California. For more than two decades, we have been dedicated to offering a safe haven for at-risk teenagers who have been removed from their families due to mental, physical, and sexual abuse, sexual trafficking and unimaginable neglect. These youth, all suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) due to their past experiences, have found solace within our homes, where they can embark on a healing journey.

Our comprehensive program embraces a multi-faceted approach to healing. We provide lots of individual and group therapy, along with innovative therapies such as equine, music, and art, to help these youth address the emotional and behavioral challenges that stem from their trauma; in-house tutoring and educational enhancement programs to help bring them up to speed academically; life skills, cultural enhancement services and recreational outings such as fishing, camping, hiking and attending the theatre; and professional sporting events to help cultivate social skills, and to allow them to just be kids.

While we rely on support throughout the year, the holidays are a particularly challenging time for our youth. Despite the suffering that they have experienced at the hands of their family, it is the only family that they have known, and being away from them during this period is extremely difficult. We, consequently, take special care to make the holiday period a truly memorable and magical time in their lives, filled with joy, special Christmas dinners, lots of presents and a multitude of activities ranging from snow-boarding and skiing, to attending the theatre, beach excursions and lots of love.

We invite you to join our friends, sponsors and community partners at our annual Christmas Brunch Fundraiser. This will be held at the Eagle Glen Country Club in Corona, California on December 8, 2024. Our goal is to engage, inspire and unite members of the community to support our community-based residential treatment and training programs, as well as the growth and development of at-risk youth, throughout the year.

We appreciate your careful consideration and we eagerly look forward to your presence at the event where together, we can make a profound impact on the lives of at-risk youth.
