Support today.
Change tomorrow.
STYED empowers youth by providing educational resources, secure housing support, and evidence-based violence prevention programs.
We advocate for systemic policy changes to eradicate youth homelessness and end the epidemic of gun violence in schools, churches, and communities across America.
We stand alongside immigrant youth and families to defend their rights and expand their access to opportunity.
A future
with more
opportunity.
To build a nation where every young person has a safe home, access to quality education, and a life free from the threat of gun violence.
A generation raised in safety, equipped with opportunity, and empowered to lead through education, stability, safety, and belonging.
Progress with
purpose.
Better school attendance. Greater confidence. More young people preparing for college and stepping into leadership.
These intended outcomes guide our work, alongside reduced involvement in gun violence and street drug activity, and fewer young people experiencing housing instability.
Our program model brings together trained mentors, program leadership, learning materials, food, a secure space, and financial management support.
