Mission
Create and support mentoring relationships that ignite the power and promise of youth.
Vision
All children achieve their full potential.
Values
-
Relationships
We build authentic relationships through trust and accountability with youth, families, volunteers, and the community.
-
Youth-Centered
We prioritize the needs of youth in our decision making. We listen to, learn from, and support youth to thrive as experts in their own lives.
-
Belonging
We create a community where all are known, included, and connected.
We recognize that everyone benefits when we amplify the voices of individuals who have historically and systemically been denied the opportunity to affect change, especially those from the Black/African American, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian American, and LGBTQ+ communities.
-
Continuous Learning & Improvement
We are curious and continually find innovative ways to meet the evolving needs of youth and community.
Commitments
We approach our work with humility, confidence, integrity, and fun!
