Our Impact
We're closing the college opportunity gap for young men of color.
The Importance of IYT
Young men of color face systemic barriers, making them less likely than their white peers to graduate from high school, meet college admission requirements, and pursue higher education.
​
IYT programming provides resources and support designed to help our members excel in school, develop confidence, and become leaders in their communities.

The Economic Power of Mentorship:
$1 Billion in Lifetime Value
To date, IYT has empowered over 1,800 young men of color to graduate from high school. ​
When we reach the milestone of 10,000 high school graduates served, not only will our programming create leaders and strengthen local communities, we will generate a projected $1 billion in lifetime economic value. ​
How We Do It
Our approach is holistic and intentional, designed to meet the unique needs of the young men of color we serve. We don't just guide them to success, we partner with them to define it. IYT Brothers are achieving excellence in school, enrolling in competitive colleges, and stepping into leadership roles that are changing the trajectory of their lives and their neighborhoods.
The IYT Model: Four Pillars of Success
The IYT model is built on four interdependent pillars, creating a robust support system that guides young men from high school through college graduation and into their careers.
Leadership Development
We believe every IYT Brother has the potential to lead. Our programming focuses on cultivating essential soft skills, including self-advocacy, emotional intelligence, and effective communication.
​
IYT Brothers develop a strong sense of purpose, and the confidence to take charge of their education and future.
