Welcome to The Youth Village Foundation. As you learn about our work, “partnering with the community to foster a new world of possibilities that will forever change the lives of young men,” we hope you will join us and support our programs to bring stability and direction to the lives of troubled youth.

Our young men are in dire need of functional adult support. The mentor program run by the Dallas County Juvenile Department provides opportunities for adults that truly want to personally help at risk youth. It can take as little as 60 minutes a week to make a difference in a young man's life.

Be a part of the solution and "each one teach one." You can access information and the forms for mentoring by clicking on the Volunteer tab.
