Community for New Direction (CND

ESTABLISHED 1989

MISSION Through innovative programs and positive relationships, CND empowers individuals to achieve their potential.

COMMUNITY PULSE In 1989, Community for New Direction (CND) began as a volunteer-run program providing positive mentoring and prevention programming to high-risk youth. Too many kids were dropping out of high school and turning to drugs, alcohol, gang activities and crime. Today, CND also works with the City of Columbus as a partner in the APPS violence intervention and provides outpatient mental health and substance use disorder treatment services for adults, which includes an all-male Recovery House.
