 To build and strengthen youth service systems that prepare Hartford youth to be productive, self-sufficient adults.
In the summer of 2006, Hartford Mayor Eddie A. Perez established the Office for Youth Services. With a focus on coordination, capacity building, and strategic partnerships, the Office has been working within the City of Hartford with key stakeholders to address the needs of all Hartford youth.
