JCORPS serves youth currently on parole or probation or in a detention center, providing structure, mentorship, and supportive programming aimed at helping them build positive pathways forward. Their work focuses on accountability, life skills, and creating supportive environments that encourage successful reentry and long‑term growth.

Teen Lifeline is an organization dedicated to youth mental health. They provide vital support services, including their well‑established peer counseling call center, to ensure young people have a safe, confidential space to seek help, feel heard, and access mental‑health resources. Their preventative approach and peer‑driven model make them a trusted partner for youth‑serving organizations across Arizona.
