Our History: The Full Circle Project began in 1991, with a single employee, as part of a project to evaluate the effectiveness of inter-generational mentoring in reducing youth substance abuse. Based on the success of the initial mentoring project, the Full Circle Advisory Board decided to pursue continuance funding and expand the services offered based on need. Full Circle of Lake County, Inc. was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) organization in 1997 and programs were added to prevent substance abuse in high school students and to provide parents with child-rearing skills. Over the past four years, Full Circle has expanded to offer programs for at-risk middle school students, a women’s empowerment group, and leading a community integration initiative.
Our Supporters: For the past 15 years, Full Circle has benefited from incredible community support. In 2006-07, 60 volunteers contributed more than 3,000 hours of service as mentors and supporters of events and activities. We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to making Full Circle a success. Special thanks to…
