Dodgers RBI is a baseball/softball youth development program that simultaneously aims to increase participation in the sport and use sport participation as an engagement tool that increases access to education, literacy, health, wellness, and recreational resources in some of Los Angeles’ most underserved communities. Dodgers RBI is bigger than baseball and focuses on youth character development as it engages communities and families in programming. In its 2017 season, Dodgers RBI will serve over 7,800 players, ages 5-18, across 57 locations in Greater Los Angeles County.
