Our Mission

For Our Ultimate Success (FOUS)

Welcome to  FOUS Youth Development Services a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit organization.  We have been serving the City of Chicago and surrounding suburbs since 2003.  FOUS has established itself as a reputable and distinguished agency amongst youth service providers and the communities it serves. We provide school-based and afterschool programming in the Roseland Community. Our mission and vision are simple, impact the lives of today's youth through quality programming and strengthen front-line youth workers through professional development.

For additional information regarding our afterschool programs and youth worker training, please contact Annette Kellyat akelly4usyouthdevelopment.org.

FOUS Youth Development Services has been chosen as the recipient of the Body Confident Sport micro-grant by Laureus USA, in partnership with Dove and Nike, and we are thrilled to share this news.  

The Body Confident Sport initiative dedicates itself to encouraging girls and young people of all gender identities to feel at ease taking part in sports. The aim is to empower coaches and athletes through two tools: Body Confident Coaching (a series of online coaching modules) and Body Confident Athletes (a curriculum to be delivered to young people). We are looking forward to implement this initiative during our 2024-2025 school year.ur paragraph here.
