As a branch of the Hope Hero Foundation, we are a group of teens and young adults that are teaching foundational skills of confidence, connection, communication and courage. We build resilience, mindset and life skills to help our peers navigate through growing up in today's world.

We do this through our Hero's Compass Program with our 4 part lessons on the Hero's Journey.

All of our lessons come directly from the Hope Hero Academy curriculum. All ambassadors are trained and certified through the foundation.
