OUR MOTTO
More, Better & Before
We strive to do more than is expected of us, better than expected of us, and before it is expected.
B.Y.R.D. House is a non profit organization that has been serving youth and families since September 1997 under the African American Task Force For Substance Abuse Prevention, Incorporated. We began developing prevention models to help reduce risk factors associated with poverty, family dynamics, school stresses, individual and peer structure and substance abuse. In December of 2009 B.Y.R.D. House applied for its own non profit status and incorporation of B.Y.R.D. House, Behavioral Youth Resource Development, Incorporated.
