UNITED IS THE WAY WE CREATE
LASTING CHANGE
We believe that all children, young adults, and families deserve the chance to succeed, regardless of zip code or income. With partners countywide— school districts and businesses, the public sector and nonprofits, UWYC collaborates on the best ways to support youth success and family stability by identifying what’s working and building on proven practices supported by data and our partners’ expertise.
WE IMPACT OUR COMMUNITY BY:
-
Supporting under-resourced students and teachers
-
Detecting potential vision disorders and preventable blindness in K-12 youth
-
Fostering a culture of community involvement and volunteerism
-
Giving children tools they can utilize to permanently break the cycle of poverty in their families
-
Connecting the dots between what kids learn in school and how it's applied in the real world
