Arizona Youth Partnership (AZYP) operates in the civic and social sector with a focus on youth development and family supports in Arizona. The organization pursues a three-pronged approach to reduce poverty and promote self-sufficiency: delivering evidence-based relationship education, afterschool programs, and youth leadership initiatives to help young people set life success goals and deter teen pregnancy, substance use, and anti-social behavior; offering family programs that provide practical guidance for healthy marriages, parenting, and economic self-sufficiency funded by the Arizona Parents Commission; and mobilizing communities by supporting coalitions with resources to drive prevention of substance abuse and underage drinking. Based in Tucson, Arizona, AZYP aims to create a linked set of programs that leverage community partnerships to expand access to prevention-oriented services across the state. The organization has a regional scope and collaborates with other community stakeholders to strengthen families and youth outcomes through prevention-focused programming. A recent development noted is a collaboration with Interfaith Community Services in Tucson to deliver programmatic initiatives to members and their families. AZYP operates within the civic and social organizations landscape, serving communities in need through education, family support, and coalition-building activities.
