Welcome to New Vision Youth Services

New Vision Youth Services, Inc. was founded by Executive Director Billy H. Stanfield with a vision to reach the community positively by addressing most, if not all, of the issues that hinder social, physical, economic, cultural, and spiritual growth of youth in Baltimore, Maryland.

New Vision's mission is to change the cultural environment of at-risk youth in an effort to eliminate violent and destructive behavior in the city.

Process

New Vision targets communities and schools that are experiencing high rates of crime, and school performance issues among youth. New Vision then enters into a MOU with those schools and communities to provide mentorship, both one-on-one and group, to those youth and families, who are at-risk or vulnerable to lead a life of crime and violence. Mentorship has proven to be an effective way of diverting youth from high-risk behavior.

Safe Schools

Responding to the escalating violence and negative youth culture in Baltimore, New Vision's mission is to change the cultural environment of at-risk youth, and to eliminate violent and destructive behavior. Through ministry, mentoring, entertainment and hands on intervention, New Vision's founder and executive director Rev. Billy Stanfield, has committed his life to creating an alterative youth culture. New Vision Safe Schools Mentoring Program is based on the philosophy that crime and violence cannot be merely averted and displaced, but prevented through transforming individuals who participate in crime and violence. New Vision hires urban specialist and gives them the opportunity to positively impact young lives. These young men and women mentor at-risk teens unfortunately predestined for a life of violence, drugs, and crime. Similar programs have received the same results and achievements that has positively impacted young lives, drop out rates; attendance; improved grades and truancy in all five programs cites since its inception in Baltimore, Atlanta, Washington, DC; Dallas; and Milwaukee. The New Vision Safe Schools Program has become a model that the U.S. Department of Justice has embraced.

Each year's enrollment season for New Vision will include teacher identification of students who need who need intensive academic help and mentorship. Then, special efforts will be made to recruit these youth to the program. In addition, interested parents may apply to enroll their children, regardless of academic or behavioral issues.
