About Dobbs Ferry Youth Services Council:

 
The Dobbs Ferry Youth Services Council (YSC) plays an essential role in the Dobbs Ferry community by addressing the needs of local youth, fostering leadership, and promoting collaboration between young people and adults. This council includes community leaders, parent volunteers, and students from local schools like Dobbs Ferry High School, The Masters School, and Mercy College. One of its key goals is to create programs and initiatives that enhance the overall well-being of Dobbs Ferry's youth, ensuring their voices are heard and their needs met.

A significant part of YSC’s work is supported by the Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Support Program, which funds local coalitions to reduce substance use among young people. This program, managed by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), provides grant funds annually to community groups like YSC. The grant enables YSC to strengthen partnerships with local sectors—including law enforcement, healthcare professionals, schools, and faith-based organizations—to reduce youth alcohol, tobacco, and drug use​.

Through these efforts, the Dobbs Ferry YSC contributes to a healthier and safer environment for youth, empowering them to make positive choices while also supporting leadership development and community engagement

Your continued support allows us to make Dobbs Ferry an even better place to live, and we are deeply grateful for your contributions. Together, we are making our community stronger, safer, and more vibrant.
