LIFT Youth Center After-School Program is part of LIFT Youth Center, Inc., which has a copyright date of 2018. The mission states that the program focuses on students being Loved as they are, Inspired to be more, Found in community, and Trusted to make a difference, and that it will do this by operating two free afterschool youth centers for 6th–12th grade Catoosa County students while fostering an environment of inclusion, positive self-worth, and self-discovery and facilitating inner growth to prepare them for future success. The program describes itself as a positive anchor in a sea of negatives and an option where students can learn, grow, explore, and even fail while being supported and encouraged. Student comments about their experiences include feeling less alone, wanting openness to find, love, and accept themselves, wanting a place to be accepted without judgment, and a student expressing that they are rarely chosen for things but believe they could be a great leader.
