Mission

Mission:

Our mission is to empower and inspire young women who have been involved with the juvenile justice system and/or in the street economy to create positive change in their lives and communities. Also, we support and empower young women to be self- sufficient and gain a positive path to their future within their communities.

Vision:

We envision a world in which culturally diverse young women in crisis are supported and healed with care and compassion so that they can proactively resist the impacts of all forms of oppression. We respect and honor individual, cultural and spiritual beliefs and traditions and invite young women to bring them into their work at CEYW. We model cultural competence at all levels of our organization. We want young women to have opportunities to develop emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually in culturally appropriate environments.

We at CEYW encourage you to find out more about us and our successes on these pages. Feel free to contact us with your questions and interest as to how you can help us further our cause.
