Mission
About Us
YMC at its core is a mentoring organization that matches vetted caring adults with youth from underserved communities in Los Angeles with our unique Gift Centered Approach. Our model uses Joseph Campbell's Heroes Journey as a guide for our facilitated group activities, that help promote the mentor-mentee relationship in a community setting. Expert staff provide support, resources, and training for mentors, mentees and their families.
YMC's other programs Stoked City Surf Camp, Urban Oasis Film Academy, ECHO (monthly deep conversation sessions) and yearly Initiation Retreats are part of the soulful healing experience offered to the young people in our mentoring community. We are dedicated and committed to the growth, empowerment and success of our youth for a lifetime - once you are a part of us, you will always be a part of us.
