CiViL provides social-emotional development to high school students in a non-religious format. CiViL serves the needs of students, no matter their race, creed or color. CiViL helps students work through the problems that impede good choices in a safe small group setting that meets weekly. In Nashville, CiViL draws from predominantly low income neighborhoods. Approximately 75% of the student participants live in subsidized housing and qualify for free or reduced lunch. Students struggle with all the typical problems of the urban poor: malnutrition, family violence, crime & gang issues, physical and sexual abuse/neglect, addiction, low self esteem, and hopelessness. Group facilitators help students work through these problems. CiViL serves approximately sixty students and their families each year.
