Wayne Count Juvenile Justice Program
Empowering Youth to Discover New Paths
The Moving Forward Series is a Detroit-based program for teens, ages 12-17, providing mentors, resources, and support to help them overcome past obstacles and create a positive future. We focus on each young person’s potential, guiding them to make real, lasting changes.
