Mission:
UNITY is a youth led and artist driven registered charity dedicated to teaching youth positive artistic outlets for self-expression leading them to make positive life choices helping our communities become safer and stronger.

Program:
Through our inspirational performance assemblies and follow up artistic development workshops UNITY provides positive artistic outlets for youth to express themselves instead of expressing themselves through violence, drug use, stereotyping, bullying and other negative forms of expression. Our alternative educational format based on hip-hop and urban culture arts programs, events and continual follow-up activities provide youth with a platform to engage in creative artistic outlets. These outlets boost their self-esteem, re-engage youth into academics, introduces a healthier lifestyle and teaches youth to become mentors to their peers.

To engage and inspire youth, the “Hip-Hop Away From Violence” program undertakes inspirational high school assemblies, artistic development workshops, and various follow up projects which develop artistic skill and are based on the culture of hip-hop (spoken word poetry, urban art, and break-dancing). Our feature program is a high school outreach program called "Hip Hop Away From Violence" which reaches over 20,000 youth per year in and around Toronto, Peel, York, Duham, Guelph and Halifax.
