The mission of UrbanPromise Los Angeles is to develop the children and youth of Los Angeles as they grow into Christian leaders determined to restore their communities.
Our model is simple, but transformational. We Call It the Cycle of Restoration.
Reach a Child- with consistent teen role models, academic intervention, and joyful childhood experiences via our AfterSchool & Summer Camp programs.
Raise a Leader- through high school leadership roles, part-time employment opportunities, college access coaching, and faith-based mentoring, our StreetLeaders are becoming next gen leaders.
Restore Community- by equipping youth to give back, serve others, and create lasting impact in their own neighborhoods now, we hope to inspire a lifestyle of community engagement.
Our programs are a full-circle investment
in the next generation of Angelenos.
