About Me
My journey with The Healing Youth began when God called me at the age of 15 to work with the youth. This divine inspiration has been the driving force behind my commitment to empowering young people in Kingsport, Tennessee, and beyond.
My vision is to teach our youth about the importance of God in our lives and to show them what it means to live for the Lord. I am committed to serving our youth in mentoring and spiritual growth, helping them express their emotions and seek God's guidance.

My name is Jonathan Hardie. I am the founder of The Healing Youth. My journey began at the age of 15. I had mental health issues way before anyone knew what to call it. I struggled everyday and didn't really have a place to seek help. I tried to get help through church, school and home, but no one was able to give me guidance. Couple of years later I was in an accident with a friend and I wasn't supposed to make it but God intervened. By the grace of God I am here to be able to help youth find a way to get the guidance they need. One of the key pillars of The Healing Youth is creating a safe and supportive community. I believe that no one should feel isolated or unheard in their struggles. Through peer support groups, mentorship programs, and accessible online resources, we aim to provide a sense of belonging for young individuals looking for hope and clarity. A strong community can be the foundation for healing, and together, we can uplift one another to overcome life's challenges.
