Mission Statement
Children are taught to learn cooperatively as members of a team to create less individualism while instiling values and advantages of group cohesiveness which creates a support system during their formulative years. Since so many of our student's families are broken and dysfunctional, UYNJ is picking up the slack to raise and educate our children to reverse some of the inappropriate behavior patterns we see in our community. It is important that early school years be devoted primariy to instillling a strong communal spirit and developing effective cooperative skills to set our students on a path of success.
About This Cause
For more than 23 years, UYNJ has provided a safe-haven and a home-away-from-home for local youth from Elizabeth and surrounding areas. Our mission is to provide a living-learning environment that encourages academic and personal development for a diverse community. To achieve this goal, we: Conduct programs that address the whole family; host high-quality learning programs for at-risk youth; and provide them with the motivation and tools needed to succeed in school and in life through afterschool, weekend and summer education and recreation programs.
