Mission: Soccer in the Streets empowers youth through soccer, character development, mentoring, and employability programs.  

Vision: All children will have the opportunity to succeed.  

Rationale: Our organization pursues leveling the playing field for all, affording access to the sport regardless of race, gender, religion, or socio-economic status. We strive to integrate our communities, intertwining efforts from corporations, education system, government, non-profits, and community leaders to better the lives of children through soccer. Our organization serves in a holistic and comprehensive way, reaching kids on and off the field, through soccer training and competition, in small-group classroom sessions, through hands-on experiences and activities, and participation in youth leadership councils.  

Soccer in the Streets Philosophy  
Soccer in the Streets’ philosophy is founded on four values that govern the direction of the organization. The four values are respect, perseverance, enjoyment, and empowerment.  We create a fun and challenging environment where youth have the opportunity to learn and succeed on and off of the soccer field for a lifetime. This opportunity is offered through trusting relationships between players and coaches, who serve as mentors.
