Although Young Life exists around the world, Young Life Staten Island is relatively new. We are currently building our Young Life & YoungLives​ ministry and want you to be a part so the lives of adolescents can be changed forever! Our vision is to partner with God in what He wants to do through young people by establishing other Young Life ministries on Staten Island (Young Life College; Young Life One-ministry for incarcerated, homeless, trafficked and foster youth; Young Life-Capernaum-ministry for kids with special needs & more!)

YOUNGLIVES

A ministry of Young Life that supports pregnant and parenting teens through mentorship, community, and a life with Christ.

  1. Too many teen moms are isolated and overlooked leaving them to feel unseen and unheard.
  2. Mentors welcome teen moms with open arms and walk alongside them.
  3. Teen moms, dads—and their kids—get to experience life in the fullness thatGod intends for them.

Why​ does it matter?

30%

of teen moms​ graduate high school/get their GED.

85%

YOUNG LIFE

Helping local young people find true life

  1. We enter the world of young people and walk alongside them in an exciting and exhausting world..
  2. We share the hope of who they can become and how life was designed to be.
  3. We invite young people to find their purpose by following Christ; we care for them regardless of their response, and change lives & instill hopein the process.

IT MATTERS

1 in 5 teens struggle with mental health and being isolated only makes things worse. That is why we believe in the power of PRESENCE. Our desire is to SURROUND young people through providing resources, support, mentorship, monthly events, life skills, and an awareness of God's love for them, which will make all the difference!
