Reach & Rise- Jess Burr and Special Guest Issiac

Trailer

In today’s episode I sit down with Jess Burr, Clinical Director of Reach & Rise at The Butler Family YMCA and Issiac, a 15 y/o 9th grader at Karns City High School, who like so many come from a broken home of domestic abuse, neglected parents struggling with drug use.

The Butler County Family YMCA is proud to be one of nine YMCAs in the country that offer the Reach & Rise® group youth mentoring program. Reach & Rise® provides kids with a safe and comfortable space to make new friends, learn new things, talk about what’s on their minds, and receive encouragement from supportive adults to achieve their goals. This program helps to REACH more youth so they can RISE to a better future.
