This week on the Hung Up Podcast, we take a hard look at the realities facing at-risk youth in Philadelphia: what’s missing, why too many young people are slipping through the cracks, and how community nonprofits life Prosper and Grow created by guest Ashley Sampson are stepping up. Ashley shares her firsthand experience running a youth-centered nonprofit that’s changing lives with mentorship, resources, and safe spaces. We unpack the challenges, the barriers, and most importantly, the solutions that are giving Philly’s youth a fighting chance at wellness, stability, and a future worth believing in.
