Hyde Square Task Force was founded in the late 1980’s by a group of neighbors to address violence in our streets and was incorporated as a non-profit in 1991. Our mission is to develop the skills of youth and their families so that they are empowered to enhance their own lives and build a strong and vibrant urban community. Since our founding more than two decades ago, we have grown to serve 1,200 youth each year through leadership development, college and career exploration, arts and cultural enrichment, school-based partnerships, and youth-led community-building initiatives.
