About Us

Mission: 

Inspiring young people to realize their inherent potential as valued members of the community and inspire adults to recognize this same potential.

Why Work For Us?: 

Everything we do—from helping to revolutionize the way adults work with young people, to championing the role of young people in their communities, to building cutting-edge programs that help people expand their creative potential—is designed to build the specific assets that support young people as they grow into successful, caring, responsible adults. This means helping young people gain positive values, a sense of identity and belonging, social skills, and a commitment to learning, as well as helping to create positive, caring environments in their communities, schools, congregations, neighborhoods, and youth organizations.

Given the opportunity to be their best, they can soar.
Our comprehensive approach helps young people emerge into the powerful and positive force they are by providing opportunities to:

* Tap their innate creativity, talents, and passions
* Build communication and leadership skills so they can voice their opinions, work with      others, and make things happen
* Get involved and give back to their communities by working alongside adults
* Share their skills in school halls, neighborhood meetings, and city boardrooms

Drama Club

Overview
Headquarters: 
Long Island City, New York
Annual Budget : 
$100-500,000
Size: 
1-10 employees
Founded: 
2013
About Us
Mission: 

Drama Club’s mission is to provide theater training and positive mentor relationships to New York City youth throughout each step of their journey through the criminal justice system: detention placement and aftercare. We are committed to providing our city’s most vulnerable and overlooked youth the opportunity to laugh, be seen and heard, and cultivate life skills via improvisational theatre.

Programs: 

Drama Club was founded in 2013, and over the course of the last four years, has grown from a single class in one secure detention center to a non-profit organization serving five sites across the juvenile justice and criminal justice systems. Currently, Drama Club provides programming to adolescent boys and girls at Crossroads Juvenile Center in Brooklyn (Est. 2013), Horizon Juvenile Center in the Bronx (Est. 2014), the Robert N. Davoren Center (RNDC) for adolescent boys at Rikers Island (Est. 2015), the Rose M. Singer Center (RMSC) for adolescent girls and young women at Rikers Island (Est. 2016).  In 2017, we expanded our services to The Door, which serves systems-involved, homeless, and LGBTQ youth.  While class is open to all members at The Door, youth who have worked with Drama Club while incarcerated can join us post-incarceration, taking on paid internship roles while being exposed to The Door programs such as health care, academic and legal assistance, immigration support and free meals.

Working for Drama Club is an "all hands on deck" experience but also deeply rewarding. As it is our goal to become a national network of youth-led programs, the young people, and their well-being, are ever-present in all decision-making.
