Project Ricochet

Turning Obstacles into Opportunities for Minority Youth.

Our mission is to establish and maintain an ongoing and effective coalition of parents, grandparents, youth service providers, civic and community leaders and faith-based leaders to incorporate a “bottom-up” approach to intervention and other issues related to the reduction of minority youth into the criminal justice system.

Who we are

WE establish and sustain a dedicated team of community development professionals who remain actively engaged in local communities, providing ongoing support, guidance, and mentorship to youth involved in anti-social or criminal activities.

What we do

WE provide tangible pathways for at-risk youth to redirect their focus towards economic opportunities, achieved through youth-led entrepreneurial initiatives, innovative apprenticeships, job placements in local businesses, and additional financial incentives for those demonstrating a commitment to transforming their lifestyles.

Where we work

WE engage in authentic interactions and meaningful communication with like-minded organizations and groups while also collaborating with government agencies to secure additional resources in support of our mission.
