Young Life youth group, a strong presence in the Lake Highlands area, promotes a nondenominational, faith-based message via social activities. An offshoot called YoungLives is tailored to address the various challenges teens face when they become parents.
At Lake Highlands High School, girls who are pregnant or who have given birth are encouraged to take an elective class called Life Skills. On Valentine’s Day 2013, Lake Highlands resident and mom Anne Beller visited the class. She offered pizza and an invitation to join Young Lives.
