The James Barry-Robinson Institute is a nonprofit charitable organization dedicated to improving the lives of children, teens, young adults and their families.
For almost 90 years, The Barry Robinson Center has been improving the lives of children and families. The Center offers a residential treatment program for military-connected youth with emotional and behavioral difficulties.
JBRI is a nonprofit foster care organization providing treatment foster care and managing foster parent recruitment and training in Hampton Roads, Virginia. Most of our foster families live in Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Newport News, and Hampton.
NSTS provides afterschool and full-day summer programs for Norfolk youth 13 to 18 (18-year-olds must still be in high school). Our activities for teens include sailing, boat-building, visual and performing arts, academic support, group projects, character education, STEM-skill development, hands-on field trips, and much more.
Our youth have tons of fun, but each activity has a purpose and the fun is planned with an overriding goal in mind—raising personal expectations for what our youth can accomplish.
