Palmetto Youth Connection

Palmetto Youth Connection We all know about the rapidly increasing rate of crime both locally and globally, there is need to take responsibility of our personal security.

In the seven years since its founding, Palmetto Youth Connection (PYC) has played a major role in the transformation of the youth and college students in the Midlands area. We have gone from town to town and seen too many misinformed; mislead youth with too much time on their hands. The PYC program uses mentors and classes to “empower young people to see their value and their worth, and by doing t

hese sessions they develop life skills that promotes positive values, healthy habits, and education – resulting in real life power.”
Palmetto Youth Connection is focused on promoting:
Educational Attainment
AIDS/HIV Awareness
Leadership Development
Healthy Habits
Financial Literacy
Community Involvement

PYC empowers the youth to combat negative encounters, such as Bullying, Youth Violence, S*x Education and Peer Pressure. In 2013 we relocated to Columbia Place Mall where we can serve even more young people from our a much larger location. With a larger location comes the need for more help. We welcome any assistance and invite you to help us make a difference with today’s youth.

My conversation with Co-Lead of BeSMART origination in Columbia, SC Angela Vandelay.
The Be SMART campaign was launched to raise awareness that secure gun storage—storing guns locked, unloaded and separate from ammunition—can save children’s lives. Be SMART emphasizes that it’s an adult responsibility to keep kids from accessing guns, and that every adult can play a role in keeping kids and communities safer.

There are thousands of Be SMART volunteers in your communities and neighborhoods that are delivering the Be SMART message across the country in all 50 states.

Our Story

We all know about the rapidly increasing rate of crime both locally and globally, there is need to take responsibility of our personal security. In fact, it is now mandatory that we prioritize our security needs. Law enforcement have been overwhelmed by the present security challenges so I created IT'S On Me 2 to assist with security issues by making us all more aware. In order for us to be better prepared . We have strategize and pool our resources to inform the general public that we are here to help. Our focal point is on the safety of EVERYONE! We will be able to provide alternative methods of protection and be informed of the laws that are in place to protect all of us. As we continue to grow and develop our seminars, mini classes and online information, we would like for you to join us. Please subscribe to receive emails and alerts about upcoming events.
