Overview
We collaborate with other service providers, nonprofits, religious institutions, and universities, as well as parks and recreation, probation, and established anti-crime organizations. We serve 14- to 24-year-old kids in the probation system, courts, and/or adjudicated delinquents via the Youth Violence Reduction Partnership’s screening process. Using the Breakdance concept, which has been successful in reducing gang activity, we will create safe zones for young people and offer them a voice.
Our Focus
- Collaborating with various organizations to support at-risk youth
- Offering arts-based programs like breakdance, singing, and visual arts to provide safe zones and a voice for young people.
- A mission to end the cycle of gun violence and promote community well-being through the arts.
