Many

MANY is a national network that offers organizations resources and training focused on improving outcomes for youth and young adults at highest risk for victimization and delinquency. Annually, we connect with over non-profit providers, funders and researchers and provide intensive training and supports to about of these organizations each year. We tend to attract the innovators in the field and have just over 120 member organizations across the country who we engage with regularly to assess emerging issues in local communities —and offer real-time solutions. MANY hears first-hand from hundreds of agencies about what challenges and issues vulnerable youth (under 17) and young adults (18-24) face in their communities. Our focus reflects the most critical and cross-cutting challenges these organizations face every day, and are areas that we can directly impact through innovative solutions. This is not a static list. As our environment changes, so does our list of priorities. We listen and respond. • Employment and Education for transitioned age youth • Coordinated community responses to unaccompanied homeless youth/ young adults • Enhancing mentoring models for youth at highest risk for juvenile justice involvement • Preventing and addressing domestic minor sex trafficking • Engaging parents, caregivers, and permanent supportive adults
