"The YW-NYC provides a safe and supportive space for the young people of our city. YW students engage in programming where they can reach for their dreams, learn to become agents of change in their own communities, and get exposed to opportunities and careers to break the cycle of poverty and injustice." Maureen Friar, CEO
