music + Youth Development.

Empowerment
We provide the space and the tools to allow young people to be the best versions of themselves. Our goal is to provide access so that all young people can have the ability to live a life full of choice.

Scale
MYDA is a nationwide collective that has the ability to deploy resources locally. Music is the common thread but our member organizations use a tailored local approach to best serve their communities.

Creativity
We inspire our young people to express themselves creatively, allowing them to fully engage and open up. We’ve witnessed the power of creative expression in facilitating positive emotional change.
