At a time when some teens can struggle to develop self-confidence and find a place to belong, Harlem RBI’s TeamBuilders program focuses on helping youth form supportive relationships with their peers, families and members of their communities. TeamBuilders components include participation in softball or baseball teams, academic support activities, teambuilding and problem-solving initiatives as well as service-learning projects. Participants also receive individual guidance and support in the high school selection process in New York City, a key step to achieving high school success.


TeamBuilders goals:

  • Improve social and emotional skills
  • Improve academic skills and school attendance
  • Develop leadership skills, community awareness, and civic responsibility
  • Promote physical health
