Students are finding faith, family, and a place to belong.

Common Ground is more than a program students attend. It is a place where they are known by name, welcomed like family, and invited to grow closer to Jesus. These are a few of their words…

What our students are saying…

  • “I thank God for giving me the opportunity to come to this program and for letting me get closer to Him.”

    — Iker, 14

  • “Common Ground is a place I need to go to get closer with God. I found my way to God here. I got baptized here. Without Common Ground, I feel like I’d be a completely different person.”

    - Cristian, 15

  • “I am thankful for Common Ground because they improved my relationship with the Lord.”

    — Martin, 14

  • “Common Ground is needed because it’s a community that brings you closer to God without feeling forced. It’s a place where I feel welcomed and not judged. It’s like one big family.”

    - Atlantis, 18

  • “I feel like I’m home whenever I enter Common Ground. It is my second home.”

    - Maggie, 15

  • “I count Common Ground like family.”

    — Xavi, 12

  • “On top of being a nonprofit for the community, it’s also a second home and family for the kids here.”

    - Tony, 21

  • “Everyone needs Common Ground in their life.”

    - Derek, 13
