Beat the Streets Providence
About Us
Beat the
Streets Providence is a non-profit committed to inspiring urban youth for success in school and life through the
vehicle of co-educational wrestling. We use our program as a hook to draw at-risk students into a positive
after-school environment where they receive
mandatory academic support,
connect to strong mentors, engage
in healthy physical
activity, learn about nutrition and general health, and incentives to
attend and succeed in school. Over
the past three years we have brought wrestling, athletic and academic
opportunity, and change to 13 Providence schools and over 700 students.
