YoungLives NYC+LI empowers young parents and provides the support, community, and resources they need to thrive. By walking alongside young moms and dads, we are shaping generations.
Our Story
For 30 years, YoungLives has been a part of Young Life’s global ministry and is specifically focused on walking alongside young parents. Through Young Life’s time-tested methods and life-on-life mentoring, young moms and dads are empowered to make positive choices, set and achieve goals, and grow in their faith.
YoungLives NYC+LI is a part of the Young Life NYC + LI Region and currently has active ministries in the Bronx, Manhattan, Staten Island, and Long Island, and is working to resume outreach in Brooklyn and Queens.
Adriene Perry is the Regional Coordinator for YoungLives NYC + LI and previously oversaw the YoungLives Manhattan area, which launched in 2019.
