PARTNERS
YMWAP’s community includes partners who believe deeply in our mission.
We partner with 8 Boston schools:
Boston Collegiate Charter School (BCCS)
Ruth Batson Academy (formerly BCLA)
Albert D. Holland School of Technology (formerly Burke High School)
YMWAP’s unique collaboration between Boston district and charter schools is driven by a common goal of closing gaps and helping our young men achieve better outcomes.
For Employment and Careers:
YMWAP’s partners include the Boston Private Industry Council (PIC), through which we serve as a job worksite and place our participating students in community jobs.
We also offer Men of Color Career Night, as well as career exploration initiatives through partners like Life Science Cares and ALKU.
For College and Career Readiness:
YMWAP regularly engages guest educators, including financial professionals, college admissions representatives, alumni, and community members.
To promote college access and persistence, our partners include local Boston community colleges, Franklin Cummings Tech, Year Up, 826 Boston, and Bottom Line.
For Safety:
YMWAP welcomes a Boston Police Department (BPD) Officer into weekly groups to discuss gang violence, neighborhood safety, and careers in criminal justice.
For Wellness:
YMWAP is establishing new partnerships with organizations like Boston Children’s Hospital, Mass General Brigham Faulkner, the Menino Y, William James College, TITLE Boxing, Vital CxNs, and Beat, Rhymes & Life.
Our Partner Nonprofits:
YMWAP shares our learnings on educating men of color with our partner schools, funders, and other Boston nonprofit organizations serving youth, including the Someone Else’s Child Foundation and the Omega Life Membership Foundation, Inc.
