DRIVING FORCE GROUP INC
Mission Statement
Since 2006, DFG (Tax-ID # #45-4641567) has led individuals, foundations, and corporations in race equity and social impact solutions. DFG reflects the values and importance of an anti-racist culture within its culture, staff, clients, board and projects. We provide trauma-informed, co-designed, culturally attuned programming that reflects and responds to the communities in which we work. We are applying for a grant for the Yetunde Price Resource Center (YPRC) in Compton, CA. YPRC was created to honor the life and memory of its namesake. Yetunde was the oldest of five sisters, the youngest of whom are Venus and Serena Williams. Tragically killed by an act of senseless violence in 2003, Yetunde left behind three children, siblings, parents and a community that mourned her. In 2018 YPRC was opened to ensure those affected by trauma had the resources necessary to flourish. The Yetunde Price Resource Center was created to elevate the needs of Black and Latinx people and address health and wellness disparities experienced by the Compton community. YPRC is a healing and wellness space in Compton that offers free, high-quality, culturally-attuned, trauma-informed programs. We are committed to providing an environment of healing and wellness to people of color in Compton.
