Options for Youth is a Chicago-based organization dedicated to supporting vulnerable adolescents in underserved neighborhoods, empowering them to create positive opportunities for their futures. Through their programs, they focus on helping first-time adolescent mothers graduate from high school and become self-sufficient, promoting high school graduation of parenting students, and guiding young men in critically thinking about manhood in their communities.
For over 20 years, Options for Youth has been working with two of the most vulnerable populations of adolescents in under-resourced communities on the South and West sides of Chicago. Their mission is to break the cycle of poverty in the lives and communities of these young individuals, maximizing their potential and building upon their strengths.
