Upcoming Events
When I first arrived at TPA I thought I would hate it, and for a while, I did. After a while of being there I realized it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be, in fact, it helped me. With the help of TPA, I was able to take some time and work on myself. It became the safe space that I needed to get my head together. TPA helped me to become the changed person that I am now. I believe that TPA is the best place for juveniles in seek of guidance.

As a place to work, TPA is the best kept secret in CCSD. Many of us join the profession saying we want to make a change, at TPA, we make those changes.
