Recognizing, empowering and strengthening
​young people  since 1976.

connect authentically

Since 1976, New Day has been creating safe spaces for young people in Albuquerque to connect with positive peers and caring adults and build the skills and knowledge they need to achieve their dreams.  ​Our mission is to authentically connect young people to safety, the community and themselves. Our vision is a world where all young people’s unique identities and talents complete and strengthen the social fabric of our community. ​We are a safe place for all young people from a full range of backgrounds and identities. ​ 

empower

Our supports and services work in tandem with other community resources to serve youth, build their inner strength, and momentum towards increased stability, well-ness and hope. New Day works with over 900 young people ages 11-25 who are unhoused, marginalized and/or disconnected, every single year.  

​Services

The Life Skills Academy is designed for young people ages 16-22 who are looking to develop key skills to improve their social/emotional life skills and further develop their everyday practical life skills. See schedule for details.
