Our Mission and Core Values
DUYA’s mission is to enable children and youth from disadvantaged communities to break the cycle of poverty by providing equitable access to education, mental health, and supportive programs that help them thrive, become self-sufficient and socially responsible. We continuously strive to enter the most vulnerable and neglected neighborhoods and build a bridge of resources that helps students find a sense of purpose that brings meaning to their lives.
To accomplish our mission, we partner with other local non-profits, recreation parks, detention centers, libraries, and schools to strengthen the resources in our community. We have an open-door policy here at DUYA where we welcome youth and children from all races, genders, and ethnicities.
