United Playaz is a violence prevention and youth leadership organization that works with the Bronx's hardest to reach youth through street outreach, in-school services, recreational activities within the community and support to incarcerated youth. United Playaz is committed to improving the lives of young people surviving in vulnerable environments through direct service and community collaboration; we target youth who show high incidence of truancy and low academic performance, high unemployment or have been involved in the juvenile justice system. United Playaz believes that, as our slogan says, "it takes the hood to save the hood".
