Our Mission
Our vision is that our boys and young men become catalysts for positive change in the world.
“Life Pieces is always a place for hope, in my opinion. No matter what we go through, it's like we're always a family, a brotherhood.”
Cateo Hilton Junior mentor, who began at LPTM at age 4
“LPTM Apprentices are a gift to the communities that they come from. Intelligent, thoughtful, generous and caring, they remind us of why we do what we do.”

Our Stories
Art by Life Pieces 幸运澳洲十开奖结果历史|澳洲幸运10预测在线-2023澳洲幸运10开奖官网查询、现场直播视频app
Life Pieces To Masterpieces takes our name from the unique style of art that our youth collectively create — art that reflects their lived experiences as a way to facilitate positive, holistic development. In small groups, our young artists collaborate to decide on a life experience to make the topic of their painting and then make their masterpiece together by painting, cutting, arranging, and sewing pieces of canvas. Each colorful, sewn, acrylic-on-canvas collage illustrates a shared story and reflects our apprentices’ courage to create their own destiny – using art to turn their “life pieces” into a “masterpiece.”
