Who we help

he short answer is that we help long-term street youth, aged 17 – 24, to identify and utilize personal strengths to bridge their life experience into mainstream society.

While there is no universal profile of a ‘street youth,’ there are some generally shared patterns. Most young people on the street have experienced foster care at a very young age. Many lack family or other support systems. Many have experienced mental and physical abuse at a very young age. In their world, trust has been destroyed.
