New Earth provides mentor-based arts, educational, and vocational programs that empower juvenile justice and system-involved youth ages 13-25 to transform their lives, move toward positive, healthier life choices, and realize their full potential as contributing members of our community.
New Earth believes that all young people deserve dignity, respect, and equal opportunity. We believe that education, arts, mentorship, and jobs are critical in keeping youth engaged, inspired, and free from gang involvement. We believe in the limitless potential of our youth to become leaders when provided consistent and healthy guidance and support.
New Earth creates new worlds for incarcerated and formerly incarcerated youth through a series of transformative arts and educational programs and enrichment opportunities that nurture self-expression, stimulate positive growth, and address emotional barriers for young people to realize their full potential.
We are committed to significantly reducing the youth recidivism rate in Los Angeles.
At our New Earth Arts & Leadership Center in Culver City, young people receive career training and paid work experience, a fully accredited high school diploma program, mentorship, case management, nature expeditions, arts programming, and wrap-around services that help them re-enter their communities with the support and nurturing they need to create lifelong success.
