Youth Advocacy
We help young people between the ages of 14 and 25 in anything they need: finding a job or a place to live; solving problems with parents or friends through mediation; going to court or finding a lawyer; or completing community service. If you have a problem you can't solve on your own, give us a call.
Youth Inspired Projects
Young people can fill out a proposal form with any idea they have, whether it's a play, a class, or a basketball team, and we'll help them make it happen. We work with youth to find funding, space, and assistance for their projects. The key to Railroad Street is that the inspiration comes from young people. This ensures that our programs are relevant to the people we serve.
Regular Programs
We run several regular programs for young people. Please browse our site for details about our current programs.
Small Business Incubator
When a Youth-Inspired Project reaches the point where it's ready to break off on its own, RSYP will help its leaders take the Berkshire Enterprises Business Entrepreneurial Training Program and assist in developing the business and raising money.
