Fresh Lifelines for Youth Inc

FLY's mission is to partner with Youth to unlock their potential, disrupt the pipeline to prison, and advance justice in California and beyond. FLY envisions a country where all kids grow up valued and supported, and the pipeline to prison is replaced with meaningful opportunities for kids to live healthy, free, and productive lives that make stronger, safer, and more vibrant communities for us all. When FLY was founded in 2000, we were guided by the input of Youth in the juvenile justice system to create programs grounded in legal education, mentoring, and leadership training. Over the past 22 years, we have continuously sought the input of young people impacted by the Youth justice system to grow and evolve our program offerings. We seek to elevate the voices of young people to make our systems more equitable, just, and humane. We are on a trajectory that aspires to move from service for some to justice for all.
