Our Mission

At Mixed Behavior Foundation, we are committed to advancing health equity, social-emotional wellness, and educational justice for youth and young adults impacted by systemic oppression—including incarceration, poverty, and community violence. Our mission is to dismantle the preschool-to-prison pipeline by providing safe spaces, trauma-informed programs, and transformative opportunities that support healing, empowerment, and self-sufficiency.

From mental health and wellness initiatives to creative arts, workforce development, athletics, and reentry housing, our programs are designed to meet young people where they are and help them build the futures they deserve.

Explore our full range of programs—from “I Choose Me” and “No Days Off” to Project HEAVY, S.H.I.F.T., and HER Wellness—by visiting the Programs tab.

Together, we are cultivating resilient leaders, disrupting cycles of harm, and building stronger, healthier communities.

Breaking the Pipeline, Building the Future

Empowering Justice-Impacted Youth Through Education and Healing

At Mixed Behavior Foundation, we are dedicated to disrupting the preschool-to-prison pipeline and creating pathways to opportunity for justice-impacted youth. We provide mentorship, scholarships, and trauma-informed resources that empower young people—especially those impacted by incarceration, poverty, and systemic neglect—to heal, grow, and thrive. Through strong partnerships with schools, community organizations, and reentry programs, we uplift youth with the support they need to rewrite their narratives and reclaim their futures. Join us as we transform pain into power and ensure every young person has access to education, wellness, and justice.
