About Mind Over Matter Y.D.I. PDF Print E-mail
In 1997 the Mind OVER Matter was established.  The Mind OVER Matter Model emphasizes the value of self, interactions with others and the impact this has on social and academic development.  The Model encourages youth to THINK about the consequences of their actions, instead of focusing on immediate gratification (i.e. material things) hence, mind over matter.

Over time the Mind OVER Matter Model has evolved into an institute in which youth, parents, professionals who work with youth, and agencies that serve youth are able to benefit from support services which provides skills that youth need to be successeed.  We specialize in providing supplemental youth services that are research based to ensure positive outcomes for youth and those who work with them.
