We’ve been doing this work for more than 50 years and are proud of the ways we partner and build relationships with a vast network of people to bring about change.

Our Proposal Review partners had an 89% success rate in receiving federal funding in the last cycle.
We’ve supported Our Members by providing nearly $6 million in subcontracts in the last 5 years to support local practice innovation.

We still have a ways to go, but we are on a journey to bring about real changes and liberation through Authentic Youth Collaboration.
