Nonprofit Overview

Causes: Children & Youth, Children & Youth Services, Youth Community Service Clubs, Youth Development Programs

Mission: The mission of access youth, inc. , (access) is to provide at-risk youth with access to the skills, systems and support they need to stay in school and out of the criminal justice system. We currently work to curb the school-to-prison at three key intervention points - when student behavior puts them at risk of suspension, when students begin to exhibit truancy, and when students are arrested by the police for first-time, low-level offenses. Access is unique in our programming, approach and results. We are the longest-running diversion program in the district of columbia, the only nonprofit partnering with dcps to reduce truancy at the high school level, and the only nonprofit helping dcps pr suspensions provide high school student with alternatives to out-of-school suspension.
