ABOUT CREATE NOW

Create Now is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1996. Our mission is to give youth opportunities to find their voices through the arts. 

We provide high-quality programs in music, dance, visual arts, fashion, writing, performing arts, digital media and cultural excursions to the most vulnerable children, those who have fallen through the cracks. 

These are kids who have been abused, neglected, abandoned, orphaned, left homeless, runaways, throwaways, teen parents, victims of domestic violence, children of prisoners, substance abusers, gang members or incarcerated.

Create Now also helps prevent cycles of of abuse, homelessness and violence by reaching students in schools who are at-risk of dropping out. Children are able to express themselves positively and safely, which ends truancy and other negative behaviors. 

In the past 19 years, Create Now has served more than 35,000 of the most troubled youth in the Southern California region.
