Falkenburg Academy is a correctional facility for young men ages 13-18 http://www.criminologycenter.fsu.edu/jjeep/tech-demo-falkenburg.php.  The young men are in residence at the facility for a minimum of 7 months and are given opportunities to attend school (with the potential of receiving their GED), church and various classes (social skills, parenting, money management, etc).  We also have mentoring and tutoring programs in place for the young men.  As a volunteer, you would have an opportunity to spend time with the young men in various ways - you could be a mentor or a tutor, attend birthday/graduation parties, help purchase and wrap Christmas gifts, serve holiday meals or volunteer at church services.  There are various events that take place throughout the year, and volunteers are always needed to encourage and uplift these young men. 

If you have questions or would like a volunteer application, please email Pastor Burnard Scott at bscott@crossingonline.org.
