Who we are
Helping youth find a new journey.
Helping youth find a new path
Replay Outreach is a nonprofit established in Bradenton, Florida, in 2012. Seeing the need firsthand, Larry Rose founded Replay for youth who were being overlooked. He rallied community leaders with the skills to make a difference, and the organization was built to support these opportunity youth.
Young people need more than rules or a short-term intervention. They need consistent support, positive relationships, and a chance to see a future past their current circumstances. For teens facing trauma, instability, or disconnection, purpose often starts with being seen and guided toward what they do well.
That’s where we come in
Replay meets them where they are — school, club, church, or court — and stays long enough to build trust. With structure and real opportunities, these youth gain clarity and take steps toward stability, purpose, and independence.
Mission
Give them the T.I.M.E. they need
Replay exists to support teens and young adults facing trauma, instability, and disconnection through Training, Inspiration, Mentorship, and Engagement. Those relationships build confidence, practical skills, and healthier futures grounded in purpose, stability, and opportunity.
For many youth, the future feels dark. Replay’s aim is to hand them tools that light a path.
Support the missionOur approach
It’s T.I.M.E. to act
Aimlessness in youth is expensive. Those who don’t excel at academics, sports, music, or other activities are susceptible to truancy, crime, violence, and substance abuse. Youth need a direction, a passion, and a purpose. T.I.M.E. spent together can prepare them for self-sustainability, confidence, and success.
Inspire
Going into juvenile justice facilities and speaking hope into youths’ lives.
Mentor
Helping youth identify mentors with whom they can build long-lasting relationships, and providing activities for mentors and youth to get together.
Empower
Providing a nurturing environment away from a home life or surrounding area that is toxic, with learning and employment opportunities geared to their needs.
Applied learning
Hands-on development
Through local and professional organizations we bring students into applied learning environments, to further their education and gain experience in different career avenues.
