Zone 126’s mission is to combat chronic absenteeism by connecting students to youth development programming that builds pathways to college, the workforce, and promising futures.
Zone 126 envisions a community in which all students have the support needed to participate in their education and pursue successful futures that break generational cycles of poverty.
Our work is rooted in the optimism that all individuals have the best of intentions.
Our high-quality programs are delivered in a way that values and preserves the dignity of all students and community members.
Our work is grounded in our local community—and we honor their legacy, diversity, and unique strengths and needs.
Our organizational model is enriched through the alignment with our partners who honor and support our community.
Our ability to adapt to meet our community’s emerging needs is paramount to our success.

Zone 126 uses an approach called “Collective Impact” meaning we connect our community and schools with local service providers in a cross-sector effort to enrich our students.
We’re able to do what we do through the generosity of our community and supporters. When Zone 126 is thriving, so are our students. And when our students thrive, so do our families, our businesses, and our communities.
