Project Restore Bedstuy

Project Restore Bedstuy (PRB), powered by Bridge Street Development, is an immersive, year-long, initiative designed to assist young men in need of support due to their involvement in street formations. The program provides its participants with mentorship, wrap-around support, and the resources to help them regain control of their lives. Core components include access to social resources and services, paid internship employment, targeted education, and important life skills. Additionally, through restorative justice and trauma-informed programming, it allows participants to take responsibility for any harm caused, while also healing from any harm they may have experienced themselves. At PRB’s conclusion, it aims for these men to have made a real difference, not only in their own lives, but in their communities.
