Supporting and empowering Brooklyn’s most underserved young people is at the core of our mission. We love Brooklyn, we love these kids - we are guided by an unwavering belief that young people can do anything when they are engaged, motivated and inspired. We are proud to call East New York our home - located at 653 Schenck Ave in the heart of the New Lots section of East New York, our community center and programs serve as a hub for Brooklyn Youth When your child joins Brooklyn Youth Sports Club, they become a part of a community. Every kid that has gone through our programs has graduated high school and enrolled in college. Maintaining that success is at the the core of our mission. In 2020, Brooklyn Youth transformed the empty lot adjacent to our community center into a thriving 5000 square foot community garden. The Garden quickly became one of our most engaging classrooms and the home of GREENS, our environmental studies and garden program Our program staff focus on the individual needs of each one of our student athletes as they grow from middle schoolers to high school graduates and beyond.
