Fihankra Place -  It is a difficult time for urban adolescents. Even more challenging for adolescents who have difficulties at home or have spent time in institution or in foster care.

The goal of independent living is accomplished by continuing education and through teaching life skills such as shopping, cooking, finding and holding a job, learning to budget and save money, finding an apartment and effectively using community resources.

The symbol Fihankra was derived from a symbolic language of Adinkra from the West African country Ghana. Fihankra means...Safe place, Safe home or fenced home. Fihankra is a symbol of security and safety.
