The Lotus Youth Center for Transitions

The Lotus Youth Center of Transitions is dedicated to empowering young adults and children to embrace their uniqueness, their gifts, their divine purpose here. By creating activities and resources that will empower them as individuals to have the faith and courage to not only be true to who they are but also have acceptance and love for others.We help youth develop the necessary coping skills so that they may be more proactive and less reactive to real life circumstances; a healthy balance between mind, body and spirit. United through differences is exactly what makes up the energy of our center. A diverse setting and safe haven for our future generation. Inner peace and creativity, this facility nurtures fun while simultaneously providing an environment that is nothing less that enlightening for all those involved.

The Story of the Lotus


The lotus flower represents a symbol of an awakened heart in Buddhism. It grows in the worst muddy and murky waters. Despite these conditions, the lotus flower maintains strength, and pushes aside each of these dirty obstacles as it makes its way to clearer surfaces until it finally blooms and basks in the suns glory.  

It resembles the purifying of the spirit which is born into murkiness.

It symbolizes faithfulness. Those who are working to rise above the muddy waters and mist will need to be faithful to the light of their true spirit.





Just like the Lotus Flowers - We believe our youth need time to grow and develop deep, strong, and faithful roots that will help sustain their foundation as adults. We will aid in this development by offering unique empowering resources that will nurture and support their journey.

The future generations deserve better. They must learn how to express themselves freely, to follow their dreams, to face fears, to be encouraged, get back up when they fall, be confident in their uniqueness in this world, keep an open mind and a loving heart~ this is the richest gift anyone of us can give to our children.

Show our kids how to keep their minds open not closed up, we cannot keep teaching our kids to be afraid of our life’s failures and setbacks, just because we were not brave enough to grow from the experience, because we allowed bitterness to settle in, because we are scared of the heart ache, because we personally are afraid of everything and anything. The future generations deserve better, they must learn how to express themselves freely, to follow their dreams, to face fears, to be encouraged, get back up when they fall, be confident in their uniqueness in this world, an open mind and a loving heart is the richest gift anyone of us can give to our kids.

We can learn so much from one another, so much to be felt, the hearts of every soul in this world have a beautiful story to tell.
