Mission: The mission of Youth Power Center is based on the strong commitment of its founders to “Prepare Youth for Leadership in the Community and the Workplace. ” This mission is achieved through Developing the Pipeline of a Lifetime of Options and Opportunities (DPLOO) that focuses on workforce development, literacy enhancement, and mentoring. Youth are empowered with the skills, training and resources necessary to compete successfully in society.
Geographic areas served: Ward 7 and Ward 8 in the District of Columbia, Washington, D. C.
Programs: Good Samaritan takes the long view with an intensive, comprehensive program, having seen that short-term, patchwork services and relationships simply can't get the job done. As a result, young people receive ongoing tutoring, mentoring, training, and experience as they explore and strengthen their unique competencies, social, ethical, cognitive, emotional, spiritual, and physical. The program runs 46 weeks a year, and great effort is made to engage students for the full four years of their high school experience. Because Good Samaritan recognizes that needs are great and resources finite, it builds for the future by weaving leadership development, work-readiness, and community service projects throughout the program. Good Samaritan extends its resources and its reach by actively pursuing partnerships with like-minded community groups that offer complementary services and expertise.
