Jefferson Youth Foundation, Inc. is a non-profit organization that has partnered with the local school system and community organizations since 1993. We have provided an array of social services concerning the health, education and welfare of children in Jefferson Parish. For the past 18 years our goal has been to enhance the lives of at-risk populations in Jefferson Parish so that they may become contributing effective members of society. Our programs are designed using the scientific method of researching and collecting information from experiences, knowledgeable sources, and factual data; identifying problems; proposing solutions based on knowledge and research; implementing projects based on best practices; and evaluating the programs to assess results and improve services.
