Giving Back to the Community
New Outlook students are also provided the opportunity to complete community service projects throughout their stay. The objective of this program is to not only help students fulfill court obligations but also teach them the value and intrinsic satisfaction that results from volunteerism.
Please refer to the New Outlook Academy Facebook page to read all about the many projects that our young ladies complete.
Work Programs & Restitution
