Against the Grain serves men women and children that are caught in abuse, addiction or negative generational cycles. By catching the kids at a young age through the study buddy program we reduce the chance that they will grow up needing our program while incarcerated. The study buddy program provides one on one tutoring during school hours so the child is getting the help needed without adding more onto the parents. The 180 Program is taught in structured environments for the best results. This allow adults to learn to make better choices and understand why they did what they did and how to change it.
