Mission

The Youth Life Foundation of Richmond operates Learning Centers to develop leaders by making long-term investments in children from under-served communities. By supporting students academically, developing their character from a young age, raising expectations, and investing in their lives through committed mentoring relationships, these youth will rise above their circumstances to become tomorrow's leaders.

Program accomplishments

  • Students in Youth Life Learning Centers participate in structured academic enrichment and small group tutoring. 1) Academic Support: YLFR Learning Centers are staffed by certified teachers in order to provide quality, individualized instruction, and ongoing evaluation of student progress. 2) Small Group tutors: lesson plans are implemented by committed volunteer tutors during Learning Center hours throughout the week, allowing each group to receive personal attention and build trust with caring adults. 3) character development: students focus on meeting high expectations for their social and behavioral development as they grow into responsible members of their communities. 4) Long-term commitment: a unique and vital element of the YLFR model is to invest in children from a young age and stick with them through graduation from high school. 5) Students who have the lowest reading scores and needs meet up to two times per week with reading specialists and we have seen tremendous reading growth as a result.
