Sto-Rox Youth Partnership
The Sto-Rox Youth Partnership is a platform for youth program leaders, school employees, businesses and other community members to collaborate, in order to improve the lives and futures of our children. By identifying existing resources and coordinating our efforts, we systematically address issues that adversely affect the wellbeing of Sto-Rox youth, using data-driven metrics to guide our progress. Together, we are better equipped to confront and improve the pervasive problems of poverty, crime, and disenfranchisement that too frequently affect the lives of our kids.
Originally formed as a partnership between The Sto-Rox School District, Communities In Schools-Pittsburgh/Allegheny County, and the McKees Rocks Community Development Corporation, the Partnership has developed into a growing collective of local organizations and individual partners from the surrounding neighborhoods coming together to implement strategies and programming that will directly impact students and families across the region.
To make it all happen, Bryan McCarthy (bmccarthy@cispac.org ) is at the Sto-Rox Primary Center and Upper Elementary and Shallegra Moye (smoye@cispac.org) at the Sto-Rox Jr./Sr. High School. Please feel free to reach out to them to find out how to get involved!
Focusing on a creating a healthy and fruitful learning environment for all students, both in and out of school, as well as community engagement efforts like The Runestone, the group is eager to continue working together to build on the tremendous organizational efforts already taking place throughout the Sto-Rox Community.
Current iniatives include:
