America’s Promise works to ensure that the youth of our community receive the Five Promises:

 

Through these five promises we can work to prepare the youth of Fall River achieve success in school and in life. America’s Promise research shows that young people who receive four of the Five Promises are far more likely to be successful, to get As, to avoid violence and to volunteer.United Neighbors is directly contributing to these outcomes and leveling the playing field for youth across racial and economic lines.

 

America’s Promise Alliance is a partnership that includes more than 300 corporations, nonprofits, faith-based organizations and advocacy groups that are passionate about improving lives and changing outcomes for children. In 2008, Fall River was voted one of the 100 Best Communities for Youth People and United Neighbors is committed to see this happen again.
