Welcome to the Uptown Transformative Youth Justice Hub, a bold new initiative that envisions a world where there are no kids in cages because alternatives to incarceration have become the norm rather than the exception. By elevating the alternatives - Community Reinvestment, Credible Messengers, Family Engagement and Youth Leadership - we believe we can equip communities to divert young people who are struggling into places where they can thrive and grow.

We bring together community and system stakeholders to jointly create solutions for the youth justice system, provide youth-led training and technical assistance, and offer alternatives to incarceration for youth in the South Bronx and Harlem. Whether you are a young person, a parent, a concerned community member, or a public official, we invite you to join our movement.
