Rick Newell: An Onramp For Foster Teens Take Root

    • Christianity

Rick Newell is the founder of M.U.S.T.  (Mentoring Urban Students and Teens), and the owner of  Fairway Studios. In this episode, he describes God's leading to hand over the leadership of M.U.S.T. and begin a new ministry, called ROUTE 21.  This ministry uses the same mentoring model to support teens as they are aging out of the foster care system, preventing these kids from falling through the cracks.  Starting in high school, ROUTE 21 steps in to provide an "onramp to adulthood"  through 7 years of mentoring, and the very real possibility of effecting generations to come.

Rick is also the incredibly creative author of Life in the Trap (a golf comic strip), and he is passionate in his role as husband to Rebecca and dad to their 4 boys.

(Note: ROUTE 21 is a branding refresh of the current name, Hope Herd.  More information can be found at hopherd.org)
