Juvenile Delinquency Prevention Initiative JDPI

Juvenile Delinquency Prevention Initiative - JDPI is a 501(c)3  Non - Profit organization of community and college mentors who are committed to supporting and providing guidance by sharing life experiences with community disparities. JDPI also works with statewide partners to empower and prevent youth from entering the juvenile justice system.

 

Supporting youth and their families through dynamic supports, time and life skills education prevents juvenile delinquency, abuse, neglect

and reduces disparities with diverse minority youth. With one of the goals being progress towards universal health and communnity wellness. JDPI is in its 3rd year as a statewide non - profit organization working together to make a difference and build communities.

​

We work with a diverse population of individuals who are struggling to make it through each day working on their health, juvenile prevention and well - being. Since COVID, JDPI's community mentors and peer leaders have become essential workers providing youth services and ongoing public outreach services within communities across the state. With the new year upon us, JDPI is seeking donations to ensure the youth and families we service have a warm place to sleep, healthy food to eat and essential hygiene and appropriate seasonal clothing. We are seeking monetary and tangible donations to be used to meet the basic needs of youth and families we serve and you can make your donations to: $JDPI100 Cash App, B.robinson@jdpi.org or 401-777-7381.

 

JDPI is seeking specific donations such as sports equipment, gift cards, food and refreshment donations for our weekly Sunday Families events we hold from 12 pm to 2 pm. These events will support youth, families and their community to feel the spirit and true meaning of togetherness and love at a time that so many single or working families are not able to provide for their families. We would greatly appreciate any contribution you could offer to the youth, families and communities we serve. JDPI has 501(C)3 Status so all donations are tax deductible. Please think of JDPI throughout the year and those to come.
