Reimagine Youth Development

Reimagine Youth Development takes a comprehensive approach to reducing firearm violence through targeted community investments. The program builds protective factors around youth of color to decrease risk-taking behaviors related to gun and community violence and works to strengthen the caregiver-child relationship among families who have been traumatized by community violence. Services provided include mentoring, support groups, counseling, youth leadership development, after-school services, and life skills education.
