Starfish Community

Jim Interview

Jim shares about his outreach to troubled youth in Indonesia.

Here is an example of how the Starfish Community is transforming lives by taking drug dealers, drug addicts, and prostitutes off the streets and giving them a sense of purpose and belonging.

These young people are in poverty, for sure, but more than that, they are often viewed as lost causes by society. Their lives are broken by what they see as insurmountable difficulties around them. Jim knows that they will never change their circumstance until they change their attitude, and that is why the program is successful.

Are there lost causes in your community? A lot of the members of the Starfish Community are working in what seem like hopeless situations, and are having the same positive impact. Keep up the good work, and feel free to share some of your success stories with the rest of us on this site.
