Why Rise With the Tide?
Life moves in waves. So can hope.
The tide reflects life's challenges and triumphs. MTC Surf helps young people find connection, confidence, and strength for the next step through time in the ocean.
The evening brings the community together to hear from people who have witnessed healing and hope through these programs.
