Dynamy is a not-for-profit mentoring and internship focused experiential educational organization founded in 1969. Our mission is to challenge, support, and empower people of all ages to discover their purpose and to practice their values via internship programs and mentoring activities. Dynamy currently operates two core programs: the Youth Academy, and Internship Year.

Description:
The Dynamy Youth Academy (formerly the John S. Laws Institute), created in 1989, is an experience-based, four-year, after-school, leadership and mentoring college access program.

The Youth Academy (YA): 1) identifies promising low-income 8th grade students in the Worcester Public schools: 2) supports them in completing their high school education: 3) motivates and prepares them for college and internships, and 4) guarantees them access to higher education.

The Youth Academy supports and encourages young people to reach beyond limits both real and imagined.
