Milwaukee Youth Sports Alliance

Sports - particularly youth sports - have the potential to contribute so much more to our society than they are being asked or funded to do. The intentional use of sports has the ability to bring people together across racial, religious, and socio-economic lines. Sports has the ability to support areas associated with public health, violence prevention, education, civic engagement, and social justice is immense. Recognizing the need to collectively re-imagine the role and benefits of youth sports in society, MYSA was created to: - Unite the youth sports community in advocacy for sports as a tool for social change - Improve coordination between youth sports stakeholders - Gather best practices, share research, and evaluate impact - Offer training and technical assistance - Increase the amount of funding and resources
