Our goal is to create a seamless network of services that address the academic needs, positive social connection to peers and caring adults, concern for personal and physical health, removal of barriers to employment, character development, service to community, and involvement and inclusion.
In 1999, when African American students in San Jose approached Winston Ashby, to help them to address violence and inclusion, their urgency sparked the need for an action plan that would address these concerns raised by students in their community and community. That request, twenty years ago, called for the formation of the Positive Alternative Recreation Teambuilding Impact (PARTI) Program, which has been serving as an advocate and support for disenfranchised youth. We are assisting schools and civic leaders in developing action plans to help to partner schools, and community-based organizations to carry out deliverables that create positive connections that include: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for safer school climates. We are providing youth with leadership, financial literacy, and volunteer opportunities during COVID-19 shelter in place. In California, during the 2020-2021 school year, we will continue to provide socio-emotional support to disenfranchised youth that focuses on addressing core youth issues that affect them being successful in school during the 2020-2021 school year.
Winston Ashby has successfully grown PARTI Program since 2000 through his advocacy and his innate ability to positively and inspirationally lead his community. Leveraging on nontraditional forms of leadership development and core programs, PARTI Program focuses on mentorship, leadership, and most importantly civic engagement. Collaboration with different public and private agencies supporting African-American led and anti-racial organizations has been key in the success of the PARTI Program organization. In 20 years, PARTI has built partnerships with Youth Service America, My Brother’s Keeper Alliance, and Americorps. He has received communication from President Barack Obama in 2014, because of his impact of African American males and youth of color.
