Founded in 1994, the mission of Youth Ministries for Peace & Justice is to rebuild the neighborhoods of Bronx River and Soundview/Bruckner in the South Bronxby preparing young people, ages 13 to 21, to become prophetic voices for peace and justice. We accomplish this through political education, spiritual formation, and youth and community development and organizing. Guided by a prophetic faith, YMPJ’s purpose is to transform both the people and the physical infrastructure of blighted South Bronx neighborhoods and change the systems that negatively impact them.
