Capacitar a las personas.
Transformar la comunidad.

Juntos, trabajamos diligentemente para ser parte de la solución para reducir la violencia juvenil y armada, abogar por comunidades más saludables y crear un impacto positivo que se extienda mucho más allá de hoy para los jóvenes, las familias y los vecindarios marginados y desatendidos en todo el suroeste de CT y más allá. .

Nuestro Impacto

Al colaborar con nuestros vecinos, desde preescolar hasta la edad adulta, generamos un profundo impacto en la vida de más de 50,000 personas en la región de Bridgeport cada año. Estos jóvenes resilientes y sus familias enfrentan desafíos increíbles, lidiando con las complejas realidades de un mundo pospandémico, el abuso de sustancias y la adicción, la violencia persistente, la pobreza persistente, las enfermedades mentales y la carga del trauma generacional. Un ejemplo notable de este impacto se puede ver en nuestros esfuerzos de justicia restaurativa. La Justicia Restaurativa es una de las muchas maneras en que servimos a más de 19,000 estudiantes y 1,500 miembros del personal escolar en múltiples distritos escolares.
