Ubuntu Village Nola

Ubuntu Village Nola is a non-profit organization based in New Orleans, LA, dedicated to fighting for social, economic, and transformational justice for children and communities. They work closely with families of youth involved in the juvenile justice system, providing support, education, and advocacy to help them navigate the legal process and advocate for their rights. Through their mentoring cultural programming, parent leadership research, and debt-free justice alternatives to jail, Ubuntu Village Nola aims to create a caring community that empowers young people and their families, while addressing systemic issues of marginalization and discrimination.

Grounded in the principles of unity, self-determination, collective work, responsibility, purpose, and creativity, Ubuntu Village Nola envisions a world where all children are empowered to pursue their goals and families have the economic resources to support them. By addressing issues such as mass incarceration, racism, unemployment, and trauma, they strive to create more just and equitable solutions that unite people facing multiple oppressions. Through their efforts, Ubuntu Village Nola aims to foster a sense of community and provide resources for personal growth and transformation.
