Village HUTS are the heart of The Village Anderson. They are small, structured mentoring communities where youth are surrounded by caring adults, positive peers, and consistent support.
HUTS stands for Healing, Uplifting, Transforming, and Strengthening. These four words capture the kind of environment we are building and the kind of growth we want to see in every young person we serve.
Rather than relying only on one-to-one mentoring, Village HUTS bring youth together in group settings that are relational, intentional, and rooted in trust. Each HUTS group creates space for young people to be seen, heard, challenged, encouraged, and supported.
Each HUTS group consists of 3 adult mentors and up to 12 youth. This small group structure allows for authentic connections, relational discipleship, and safe spaces where youth can grow into the best version of themselves.
