Our vision is to walk with a child from age six to age nineteen and be an advocate, family, teacher and mentor to that child.

What a fantastic night! The youth of New City Kids: Jersey City put on an unbelievable show filled with music, dance, and powerful testimonies of their lives. New City Kids can partner with youth because supporters like you invest in this work. At the show, we told you of our big dream, The Rubingh Center for Youth Development, and we were challenged to raise $40,000. We exceeded that goal thanks to you and a matching grant from SILVERMAN. God has big plans for Jersey City and New City Kids, and with Him and the support of this community, we know, All Things are Possible!
Missed the Show? No worries! Visit newcitykids.org/possiblelive to catch the incredible show that the youth of Jersey City put on!
