Philadelphia Youth Network

PYN's vision is that all of Philadelphia's young people will take their rightful places as full and contributing members of a world-class workforce for the region. As a catalyst for collective action, the Philadelphia Youth Network makes connections among individuals, organizations and systems. We increase capacity and resources in order to provide high-quality preparation so our City's youth can thrive in a regional and global economy.
