the national youth agency
London
All young people deserve a productive, fulfilling future. Society needs the
spark and energy of young people to make it tick, yet somehow thousands of young
people feel blocked by the complex, sometimes disheartening challenges the
modern world throws at them. Youth work is the best methodology to unlock young
people’s potential by providing high quality support and opportunities. Skilled
youth workers build relationships that support young people to explore their
personal, social, and educational development. Youth work enables young people
to develop their voice, influence, and place within society. NYA is the national
body for youth work, and the Professional Statutory Regulatory Body (PSRB) for
youth work in England. We have been transforming lives through youth work for
over 50 years. By championing, professionalising, and enabling youth work, we
strive to find better, more inventive ways to empower more young people. Our
mission is to transform the lives of young people in England and beyond through
the power of youth work. Our vision is to support one million young people
through our work
