HOYC Work Groups Overview

The Hartford Opportunity Youth Collaborative (HOYC) organizes its work through six dedicated work groups. These groups bring together member organizations, youth leaders, and community partners to focus on priority areas identified in the HOYC Action Plan. Each work group has a clear Objective and Key Strategies that guide progress toward HOYC’s goal of connecting all Hartford youth ages 14–29 to education, employment, and long-term success.
