The Coming of Age program:

COA gives the youth the opportunity to explore their beliefs and write a Credo which is a statement of belief. Exploration takes place as a COA group and individually with an adult mentor of the youth’s choosing. COA classes meet on the first Wednesday of each month from 7:00 —8:10 pm beginning Nov. 7, 2007. Youth older than 9th grade may also choose to be in the COA program.
