New Earth Organization Information

Our Mission New Earth provides mentor based arts, educational, and vocational programs that empower youth in the juvenile justice system aged 13-25 transform their lives, move toward positive, healthier life choices and realize their full potential as contributing members of our community. Our Vision New Earth believes that all young people deserve dignity, respect and equal opportunity. We believe that education, arts, mentorship and jobs are critical in keeping youth engaged, inspired and free from gang involvement. We believe in the limitless potential of our youth to become leaders when provided consistent, healthy guidance and support. New Earth creates new worlds for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated youth though a series of transformative arts and educational programs and enrichment opportunities that nurture self-expression, stimulate positive growth and address emotional barriers for young people to realize their full potential. We are committed to significantly reducing the youth recidivism rate in Los Angeles. Learn more by visiting http://newearthlife.org
