Skate Motivate Educate

Mission

Our mission is to motivate the youth to reach their full potential by engaging youth through relative experiences that combine skateboarding, literacy and critical consciousness.

Approach

Our approach centers on meeting young people where they are, fostering agency, resilience, and critical thinking, while creating a safe space for self-expression and growth. We prioritize equity, inclusivity, and holistic development, seeing each young person as capable, creative, and deserving of mentorship that respects their unique experiences.


Motivation

Youth stick with what they choose because it feels relevant and rewarding. We use skateboarding as the connective tissue to academic curiosity and personal growth.
