Access Granted Now (AGN) - Cayla's Place is a licensed 'healing home' for at-risk pre-teens and teens ages 10-17. We are committed to accepting each child where they are and then cooperatively guiding them to present their best self; whether preparing them to return to their families or transitioning to become independent, thriving community members. Each child is seen as an individual from the point of entry through their care cycle with us.
Mission
Our mission is to transform the lives of youth while co-creating healthier communities and lifelong partnerships through the provision of quality programs based on the individual emotional, social, spiritual, and educational needs of each child.
Philosophy
Built on faith-based values and principles and founded with the goal of developing educational and social programs to enrich the lives of at-risk youth, this organization is a community-based youth development agency. Emphasis is placed on Love, Mercy, and Grace over judgment. We understand that we are all created in God's image, and as a result, the children are treated with respect, worth, and dignity.
AGN challenges the impact that external factors, such as human trafficking, domestic violence, or self-destructive activities, have on our youth today by offering a supportive family environment. With a strong team of therapists, community affiliates, educators, and administrators, Access Granted strives to eliminate negative and destructive environments through education, self-management, interpersonal skill-building, and spiritual awareness.
