The Tender Youth Foundation is a grassroots 501c3 Non-Profit organization dedicated to establishing secure and supportive environments for individuals, families, and communities affected by trauma, specifically arising from gun violence. Our primary objective is to create spaces that offer tangible resources to enhance mental health, human welfare, and overall wellness. 

Additionally, we strive to promote gun safety education, educational achievement, and various opportunities for youth, adults, and families residing within our Southland Metropolitan Suburban Communities.

At the core of the TY Foundation's values is the understanding that leadership behavior profoundly impacts outcomes. We recognize the crucial importance of leading with compassion and empathy. 

Our approach involves not only nurturing a culture of compassion but also involving the community in our comprehensive plan to restore empowerment, structure, community engagement, and hope. 

Through our resolute actions and highly visible demonstrations of change, we aim to sow the seeds of transformation and uplift those who have been affected by unspeakable circumstances.
