YOUTH

Partnership for Youth Development has been helping afterschool programs achieve the highest levels of program quality since 2002. Prior to August 29, 2005, the Partnership for Youth Development (formally known as Afterschool Partnership) worked collaboratively with nearly 180 non-profit, community-based, faith-based, and school-based organizations to support afterschool services for school-age children in the New Orleans area. The devastation of the levee failures, the destruction of many of these sites, and the displacement of thousands of citizens resulted in few programs for children and families and forced the Partnership and our provider network to refocus efforts in order to provide these needed services in a safe environment.
