Right Moves For Youth

Right Moves For Youth (RMFY) exists to increase opportunities for children using a unique model of group mentoring that emphasizes education, social-emotional well-being, career development, and civic duty.

The mission of Right Moves For Youth (RMFY) is to help students in grades 6-12 make the most out of their education, connections, and opportunities so that they can set themselves up for future success. RMFY offers school-based student support and youth development programs in collaboration with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department, the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office, and other community partners to help students understand the importance of graduating and the positive impact of having a high school diploma on their lives. Staff and volunteers work with students to help them learn and practice new skills, give and receive peer support, develop positive relationships with adult mentors, find new meaning in succeeding in school, and cultivate a sense of personal leadership and civic duty.
