DCAYA’s mission has been
endorsed by a breadth of local youth-engaged organizations as members,
now numbering over 50. Our members are nongovernmental youth-engaged
organizations operating in all of the District’s wards, providing
all manner of opportunities and supports, and serving all subpopulations
of young people. Our organization members range from single-purpose
groups with all-volunteer staff, small budgets, and a low volume
of service users to multi-purpose agencies with diverse funding
streams, large staffs, and thousands of service users.
What binds us together is our shared commitment to the positive
development of youth and their families and the safety and stability
of the neighborhoods and city in which they live, study, work, and
play. Members embrace the premise that the youth-engaged sector
needs an organizational venue in which to build common values, represent
the sector, and communicate unified positions to key stakeholders
and the general public—that forum is DCAYA.
