Youth Emplyment Projects

It's often said that money makes the world go round, and for many in our community, its absence creates a constant struggle. We live in an area where ethnic minorities are disproportionately impacted by poverty, making it a familiar hardship for many families.

Mentoring Scheme

A guidance and an additional helpline has almost become a necessity in a world full of political dexterity and uncertainty. Through excessive research and past failures, it has been notably mentioned as a fact that young people with a caring and consistent adult mentor are more likely to succeed in life.

Leadership skills training

They say an ‘army of sheep led by a lion can defeat an army of lions lead by a sheep’. Leadership training seminars are pivotal in shaping an entire community. Everybody’s a leader of their own flock. however, leadership must be harnessed and resurrected from within us.

Sports

We as a youth-based organisation use sports as an integral part to create a positive and cohesive togetherness amongst young people in our community. Sports is amongst the biggest social asset we have as we use its competitiveness as a lure for youth to assert all their energy and efforts towards it thus diverting them away from any criminal-related activities which directly interlink with ‘free time’.

Who we are

JYCA was set up 2007 by young people who sought to provide a support network for young people in Islington. It has done this through connecting young people together through sports, mentoring, practical advice and guidance and giving young people a platform to speak. Over the years JYCA has worked collaboratively with Listen Up, Islington Faith Forum, Lift/platform Youth hubs, Prince Trust, Islington Council, Arsenal in the Community, access to sports MuslimWelfare House and Finsbury Park Mosque which aims to give young people a voice about issues affecting them in the current socio-political context and to have an impact on decision- makers.
