Identity

Identity Identity creates opportunities for youth, families and communities with the most need to realize their highest potential and thrive.

Each year, Identity assists more than 3,000 in-school and out-of-school youth and their families who live in high-poverty areas of Montgomery County and who are most at-risk for poor academic and economic life outcomes. We empower Latino youth to reach their highest potential and work towards a successful transition into adulthood. We envision a just and equitable society that nurtures all youth a

nd is enriched by their contributions. What We Do:
• Academic Support
• Social and Emotional Learning
• Workforce Development
• Recreation
• Re-entry and Rehabilitation
• Gang Prevention
• Wraparound Services
• Parent Engagement
• Advocacy

A backpack is more than school supplies..it’s a strong start to the school year! 🎒

This year for our 6th annual back pack drive, we’re working to fill 900–1,000 backpacks with school supplies and notes of encouragement for young people in Identity’s programs. For many students, a backpack is more than a collection of supplies, it’s a reminder that their community is invested in their success.

Join us by donating supplies, shopping our wishlist, or volunteering at our 6th Annual Backpack Supply Drive. Head to the LINK IN BIO to support!

Una mochila es mucho más que útiles escolares... ¡es un buen comienzo para el año escolar! 🎒

Este año, en nuestra 6.ª Colecta Anual de Mochilas, queremos llenar entre 900 y 1,000 mochilas con útiles escolares y mensajes de apoyo para los jóvenes que participan en los programas de Identity. Para muchos estudiantes, una mochila es más que una colección de útiles; es un recordatorio de que su comunidad cree en ellos y está comprometida con su éxito.

Únete a nosotros donando útiles escolares, comprando artículos de nuestra lista de deseos o participando como voluntario en nuestra 6.ª Colecta Anual de Mochilas. Apóyanos dándole clic a nuestro ENLACE EN NUESTRO PERFIL.

They may have ended the weekend wet and cold, but also with stronger connections, new memories, and plenty of laughs along the way.

Last weekend, young people from the Youth Opportunity Center and Bridge to Wellness programs came together for a 3-day retreat focused on connection, healing, and growth. Away from the pressures of school and life, youth tried new things, supported one another and experienced the healing power of nature firsthand. 🛶🌿

Puede que hayan terminado el fin de semana mojados y con frío, pero también con conexiones más fuertes, nuevos recuerdos y muchas risas en el camino.

El fin de semana pasado, jóvenes de los programas Youth Opportunity Center y Bridge to Wellness participaron en un retiro de 3 días enfocado en la conexión, la sanación y el crecimiento personal. Lejos de las presiones de la escuela y la vida diaria, los jóvenes probaron cosas nuevas, se apoyaron mutuamente y vivieron de primera mano el poder sanador de la naturaleza. 🛶🌿
