By 2025, poverty in the Los Angeles Promise Neighborhood and Promise Zone regions will be reduced, via 19,000 more individuals equipped with jobs and skills for college and career success.
OUR STRATEGIC PLAN
From cradle to college and career
Impact Statement
For more than 30 years, YPI has been breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty. At the core of our commitment to serving key high-need communities in Los Angeles with essential resources and support services, we focus on direct education and comprehensive services including early childhood education, tutoring, operating K–12 schools, college preparation, computer labs, case management, financial capability, and job training.
To better serve our community, we’re thrilled to announce our new Strategic Plan that will guide our direction from now through 2019. This comes at an important inflection point for us, amid our tremendous growth with the near-completion of our first Los Angeles Promise Neighborhood award and the launch of our second. As part of a new integrated model, we’re building on key investments in leadership and results-based accountability.
