“Our mission is to create better lives for generations of children and youth by reforming the child minds and how the government justice systems works. Through this reform we seek a state of racial and ethnic equity – where no child or youth’s racial or ethnic identity predicts, in a statistical sense, how they fare. We understand that racial inequities and injustices are the result of racist policies and practices. We act upon this understanding through our organization-wide commitment to anti-racism – the work of actively opposing racism by advocating for changes in the political, economic, and social realms in which children and youth live and grow. Our mission and the active work of anti-racism cannot be separated.” YIA staffers & Board
We strive to work alongside those directly impacted by racism to undo the policies and practices that cause ongoing harm. We understand that our work to dismantle racism must start within our own organization. We are actively guided by and engaged in this work every day. Racial equity in the child welfare and juvenile justice systems is our end point. OUR APPROACH:
By convening and partnering with parents, advocates, service providers and policymakers, YAI develops and advances innovative approaches to systemic change to support kids, stabilize families, and strengthen communities. We work to achieve research-based, data-driven, tangible outcomes for generations of youth. OUR WORK IS…
