About

Youth Organized and United to Help (Y.O.U.TH) we motivate, inspire and empower youth, family and educators to dismantle the school to prison pipeline. We use tutoring, advocacy, literacy and training and DEI education to create awareness on the issues that cause the school to prison pipeline and what we can do to end it.


OUR MISSION

The mission at Youth Organized and United to Help (Y.O.U.TH) is to motivate, inspire and empower youth, family and educators to dismantle the school to prison pipeline and by challenging existing systems and structures. Y.O.U.TH is disrupting the school to prison pipeline through our #BooksNotBarsOR programming. We use tutoring, advocacy, literacy, training and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion education to create awareness on the issues that cause the school to prison pipeline and what we can do to end it.


The school-to-prison pipeline is a disturbing national trend in which children are funneled out of public schools and into the juvenile and criminal justice systems. Many of these students have learning disabilities or have difficult home lives because of poverty, abuse, or neglect and would benefit from additional educational and counseling services. Instead, they are isolated, punished, and pushed out.
