Our Story - 60 Years in Newark
The Youth Development Clinic was founded in 1958 as a private, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization by a consortium of Newark residents, the Prudential Insurance Company of America, and the Newark Board of Education.
We provide services to children in schools and community-based settings, as well as in our outpatient clinic in downtown Newark, New Jersey. We counsel those with significant behavioral and emotional needs, working to stabilize their behaviors and foster learning. We also provide consultation to school staff to support and manage students and effectively maximize their educational attainment with minimal disruptions to the classroom.
YDC established the Neighborhood Based Partnership Program 28 years ago in order to provide needed services to children and families within their actual neighborhoods, where they live and attend school. Through partnerships with Newark public, non-public, and charter schools, we are able to achieve success in reaching the most vulnerable children and families. By building interpersonal and behavioral skills in children, and coupling this with consultation with teachers to help them maintain behavioral changes in the classroom environment, we are able to improve children’s coping skills and increase their academic success.
