From the page: Five Unique Nonprofits for At-Risk Urban Youth Kids growing up in inner-city neighborhoods have slim prospects from the start. Drugs and crime are tough to avoid. Very few of the people in their communities have graduated from high school, much less gone to college. And even when inner-city children make the effort to go to school, there are too few resources and too many students in the classrooms to ensure that each student receives a quality education.

Fortunately, there's a wide array of unique nonprofits dedicated to helping at-risk youth find ways to move beyond the ghetto. Here are some of our favorites..." ****************************************************************************** *************************** Personally, I am hopeful that the disproportion of young, African American men who are victims of the inner city, will eventually begin to decline, in real numbers, with the fact of the Obama Presidency.
