Who We Are... Youth Rebuilding New Orleans (YRNO) is a non-profit corporation open to all public, private, and parochial high school students and run by a student leadership council. Our overall purpose is to be a facilitator for local youth to become involved in the recovery and rebirth of the New Orleans area. As the future leaders of this city, region, and state, it is we the youth who must act now to bring about a better quality of life for our future. Please read our Mission Statement. Special thanks to the confirmation class of St Ann's Church for their help on Center Street in Arabi.
	Want to Get Involved? Students can get involved by themselves or by chapter from school, or as a council member. We encourage anyone that is interested in forming a chapter at their school to click here for more information.

Please make a donation of your resources or time. Can you or do you know someone who can help with construction? We will seek donations after we firmly establish our identity.
