I was definitely an at-risk kid growing up.

Trouble was almost inevitable. I grew up with so many at-risk kids. Kids had things go wrong.

I have a human services bachelors degree and I want to work social work, I want to work with at-risk youth.

I started up this program here in Bermuda, working with what society deems under-privileged kids, at-risk kids.

I want to help establish opportunities for at-risk kids to have the same opportunities in and outside of the classroom as everyone else.

The goal of the Head Start program is to give at-risk children all across our Nation a fair chance at succeeding in the educational system.

Working in a juvenile detention center, being a probation officer for at-risk youths, I'll do something like that. Something nice and stable.

I feel like the eight most at-risk years for young men or young women are the four they're in high school and the four they should be in college.

Home Stability Support is our best shot at creating an all-encompassing and effective system to ensure that our at-risk children and families can remain in the homes they deserve.

Involvement in the arts engages kids in their community, improves self-esteem, reclaims at-risk youth, and builds the creative skills that are required of a 21st century workforce.

I had to really work for everything. I'm definitely an underdog. I think Jesus made me be in that situation to be able to relate to more people. That's why give back to the at-risk kids.

Child abuse and neglect offend the basic values of our state. We have a responsibility to provide safe settings for at-risk children and facilitate permanent placement for children who cannot return home.

High-quality early-childhood programs and health coverage have expanded, and the number of mentoring relationships for at-risk youth has risen dramatically. That progress is encouraging, but it's not evenly distributed.

Skills-building opportunities should be extended to people outside of the mainstream talent pool. That might include at-risk youth, veterans returning to the workforce, or immigrants struggling to make a life for themselves in a foreign culture. The process for creating wealth must begin with creating opportunity for all.

I'm not only a lawyer, I have a post doctorate degree in federal tax law from William and Mary. I work in serious scholarship and work in the United States federal tax court. My husband and I raised five kids. We've raised 23 foster children. We've applied ourselves to education reform. We started a charter school for at-risk kids.
