Friends Life Community

Advocacy through the arts - Clients learn self-expression, advocacy, confidence, and life skills through visual and performing arts. The Visual Arts program hosted an art show with original works of art by the Friends. The Performing Arts program has a traveling Tandem Troupe group that has written, directed and performed their original plays.

Social enterprise - FLC coordinates with local nonprofits to give clients the opportunity to build employment skills, social skills and independence through volunteer work. As they serve the community and strengthen their abilities, they also educate the community in their strengths and have a positive influence in changing the expectations of their community members.
