Flintridge Center’s mission is to break the cycle of poverty and violence through community planning, innovation, and action. To achieve this mission, Flintridge creates opportunities for community members impacted by poverty, community violence, and incarceration.

We do this through (1) Youth of Promise, a localized youth prevention, diversion, and development program, (2) Reintegration Services provide case management and adult diversion for previously incarcerated individuals, (3) Workforce and Economic Development for formerly incarcerated individuals through the Apprenticeship Preparation Program, which prepares justice-involved community members for union construction careers.
