At BYE Institute our mission is to empower Black, Brown, and underserved youth and their families by providing an avenue for training and resources that will enable them to:

• Address social inequalities
• Utilize restorative justice practices as a way to address conflict
• Establish anti-racist practices and policies
• Increase personal, mental, social, and financial well-being
• Abolish barriers to education and dismantle the school-to-prison pipeline
• Promote communal development

Our work is driven by fostering an environment that allows for:

• Innovative thinking and action
• Room for discomfort as we strive for growth
• Diversity and collaboration
• The highest standards of honesty, transparency, and respect.
• Space to address social inequalities while striving for equity

Through this work we hope:

To radically shift the paradigm for valuing Black and Brown communities and livelihood with the reduction of disenfranchisement and the promotion of Black/Brown enterprise and prosperity.
