2024-25 Outcomes
Adolescence is often a time of real challenge – and incredible possibility. At Wyman, we meet young people in this pivotal moment with proven programs and consistent supports that help them build connections, discover their strengths, and move toward their futures with confidence. The young people we serve are making progress that will have a lifetime of impact.
In the 2024-2025 program year, 1,186 teens participated in Wyman’s three direct service programs – Wyman Leaders, the Teen Connection Project® (TCP®), and the Teen Outreach Program® (TOP®). Through more than 70 local and national partnerships, our programs reached more than 2,500 teens in the St. Louis area and more than 25,000 nationally.
Across all three programs, Wyman teens are:
- Building positive, meaningful, lasting CONNECTIONS with their peers and supportive adults.
- Feeling a sense of BELONGING in a space where they get to be themselves.
- Developing the skills and competencies that are key to SUCCESS in school, career, and life – including communication, empathy, sense of self, and self-efficacy.
Our 2024-2025 outcomes show what’s possible when young people are supported at the right moment. Teens in Wyman programs demonstrate strong life and leadership skills; deeper relationships; a sense of belonging with Wyman peers and coaches; overall positive well-being; and improved educational outcomes – including graduating from high school on time and persisting in postsecondary education.
Through every interaction, we remain committed to one clear belief: all young people deserve to thrive. By showing up consistently and investing in relationships and skill-building, we are connecting teens to their voices, their strengths, and their futures. And, each day, they show us their courage, skills, and determination to succeed.
We are excited to share these outcomes with you.

When we invest in these skills, we’re helping young people build the tools that they need to succeed not only in school, but in life too.
