New Door Ventures, is a growing and innovative non-profit in the Mission district of San Francisco, recognized locally and nationally for its work with youth. But for New Door, it's about more than recognition.

At New Door Ventures, we prepare at-risk youth for work and for life. We provide paid jobs, skill-building, and individual support which enable our youth to discover and achieve their potential. We aim to transform individuals who will in turn transform their communities.
