Santa Fe Youth Services

Youth Advocate Programs (YAP) is a national nonprofit organization founded in 1975 that provides community-based services aimed at preventing youth incarceration and promoting positive outcomes for families. With a no reject no eject policy, YAP supports youths and their families from various backgrounds across urban, suburban, and rural communities, focusing on tailored solutions that address economic, educational, and emotional challenges.

Using a unique wraparound services model, YAP empowers program participants through individualized support and advocacy, fostering accountability and restorative justice. Their evidence-based approach not only aims to reduce recidivism and neighborhood violence but also strengthens community ties, making neighborhoods safer and enhancing the overall well-being of families in need.
