Alianza for Opportunity

Alianza for Opportunity (Alianza) is an intergenerational, national network that focuses on improving the health and well-being of youth and families by promoting and implementing a youth justice system transformation toward decreasing and ending the use of detention, with best practice policy changes and healing, restorative, and culturally sacred programming and research. Alianza envisions a world without cages, where youth and their families are uplifted, treated with dignity and respect, allowed to heal from decades of systemic racism, and are able to experience well-being through the power of their culture and community.

The purpose of the convening is to unite participants from the New York and California leadership training cohorts, many of whom are first-generation, justice system-impacted youth, and provide a culturally grounded space of healing, reflection, and collective strategy as Alianza prepares to expand its leadership training program to New Mexico and Illinois.
