Visionary Youth LA (VYLA)

We work with Angeleno youth to foster resiliency, self-identity, and generational change to build flourishing communities.

Our vision is a Los Angeles with widely available spaces where youth feel free from harm; where Angeleno youth have abundant resources for healthy development, including support from one another. We envision youth developing transformative resilience and self-possession through mentors, programming, and a support network that meets the cognitive, social, and emotional needs of a developing mind.

These youth have access to arts, dance, music, sports, counseling, community development skills, psycho-educational groups, college planning, access to tutors, mentors, as well as academic, and career counselors.

Our vision is attainable, and we can realize it together.
