The Neighborhood Youth Academy (NYA) is a non-profit organization in Minneapolis, MN that aims to close the opportunity gap for underserved children and families by providing a positive environment focused on academic achievement, mental wellness, physical health and fitness, life skills, citizenship, and cultural connection.
NYA partners with schools, community-based learning centers, arts organizations, and athletic organizations to address the needs of at-risk, under-served children in the community, including basic literacy skills, service learning, and holistic health. Their goal is to empower and uplift those who have been silenced, shifting the paradigm from desperation and failure to empowerment and success.
