An example of one of the organizations that the Leadership Partnership Fund assists . . .
NewLife Movement, a California state-recognized non-profit organization serving our community by: "Engaging criminal and disadvantaged minds and helping them become successful law-abiding citizens.” We believe we can achieve our mission by meeting those in need in the very streets we mean to change. To continue to succeed in these goals, we must further build positive mentor relationships.
(1) NewLife Movement staff engage youth through role play, coaching and powerful guest speakers who provoke positive thinking. Students will learn skills to help them make better decisions currently and are nurtured to use their new skills to build their futures.
(2) NewLife Movement reaches out to local businesses and connects them to our students that are in search of work experience. The “Partner Up” program is designed to help members of NewLife and local businesses create a supportive job shadowing atmosphere.
(3) Newlife Movement is committed to providing a positive presence and a safe passage throughout the city of Richmond. It is our mission to help ensure that our young people have a safe and resourceful park to play in, and positive role models encouraging their growth and well-being.
