Bartley Skills Development Program

The Bartley Skills Development Program (BSDP) is a not-for-profit organization founded in 2018 by Chadwin and Camille Bartley. Both founders grew up witnessing the everyday challenges in their community, and in response they created BSDP to give young people the resources, confidence, and mentorship they need to thrive. At BSDP, we believe that building a strong career path begins with exposure to diverse activities and perspectives. Our programs introduce youth to sporting and educational opportunities that broaden their horizons, strengthen their networks, and foster lifelong connections. We are proud to provide sports programming, barbering and hairdressing training, and job skills development. Through our Hair for Self-Esteem program, we also deliver free hair services to marginalized communities, helping young people feel their best so they can achieve their best.
