Adult & Teen Challenge MidSouth is launching a young adult service organization made up of young adults, 20-40, on June 10, on the campus of ATCM. The group, called Challengers, includes both graduates of the program and individuals who are passionate about the mission of the organization, according to Dr. David McNabb, president, ATCM.
Challengers will promote and support ATCM through networking, events, service projects and fundraisers. According to Challengers President Anthony Harris, “While we’ll have fun working together, our goal is to invest in people struggling with addiction in hopes they will experience freedom.”
The service organization is one of many in the area that allows young adults, also known as Millennials, to exercise their passion through volunteerism.
“We’ve seen this passion from our graduates and friends and want to ‘harness’ it in a way that gives these young men and women a sense of community and purpose,” says Dr. McNabb.
The Challengers kickoff event will allow members and those interested in learning more about the service organization to hear details about the upcoming events, including a fund- and friend-raiser concert with Ryan Stevenson and Jason Biddle in August.
Anyone interested in attending the Challengers kickoff can call ATCM at 423-756-5558 for more information or complete the form on the organization page: tcmidsouth.org/Challengers.
