NewLeaf Project was founded on a simple belief: no young person should face homelessness alone. We provide more than shelter—we offer a family, a support system, and a path forward. Our programs are built around trust, compassion, and the understanding that every youth has potential.
Helping youth complete school and build skills for their future
Building connections where young people feel valued
Providing safe housing where youth can heal and grow
Investing resources into programs that change lives
Taylor Middleton's determination to start the NewLeaf Project was born when she saw too many young people fall through the cracks—kids who needed safety, guidance, and someone to believe in them. What started as a small outreach effort grown into a full program serving youth across New York. Today, we continue that mission with the same heart and commitment.
Every young person I meet reminds me why this work matters. They deserve more than survival—they deserve a chance to flourish.
Your support helps us provide housing, mentorship, and hope to young people who need it most. Together, we can change lives.
