Her Vision Claressa's vision was to create a safe place for adolescents to explore their opportunities, which led to the creation of the Youth Life Center for the Arts. The center's target population is adolescence youth, and its aim is to serve as a trailblazer for adolescent care by providing more adult supervision and interaction. Ms. Winston uses her own experiences to shape the program that impacts so many children at her center, including her own childhood experiences as a latchkey kid. Her vision is to ensure that no child is left home alone during after-school hours, and she has leveraged her children's inheritance to make this dream a reality. The center started small, and it wasn't without a significant gamble from the founder into the future of her whole vision. The center is still standing twelve years later, with hundreds of lives positively impacted.
