Volunteer With Us!

This Is More Than Volunteering!
This Is Movement Work

Our organization exists to break cycles, build leaders, and protect the futures of Black and Brown youth and young adults. We are mentors, advocates, healers, and community builders working together to dismantle the school‑to‑prison pipeline and replace it with pathways to purpose, power, and possibility.

When you volunteer with us, you are not just giving time,  you are changing trajectories.

Why Your Presence Matters

Too many of our young people grow up without consistent support, safe spaces, or people who truly see them.

Your presence can mean:

• A young girl discovering her voice and confidence

• A young man choosing purpose over pressure

• A family finding hope again

• A community growing stronger together

 

You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be committed.
