Our Mission

Beantown Slam is a year-round, full spectrum, community-impact program that provides under-represented and under-resourced youth with trauma support, life-skills mentoring, college-readiness, workforce development, and a host of other wrap-around services. 

​

Built on the foundational pillars of sport-based youth development and direct-service community engagement, Beantown Slam has a 15-year history of creating access, opportunity and a sense of belonging that allows youth, families and communities to understand and embrace the power of hope, healing and healthiness. Our programs largely serve youth, ages 5-24, in a multitude of small cohorts and classes, and also large community events that each allow participants to discover their promise and potential, and similarly uncover the true sense of unity in community. There is poetry, promise, possibility, peace and prosperity through sport. Please join and support us on this journey of joy.
