Celebrating 15 years!
Join us for Spring Celebration as we celebrate the impact Youth Villages has had in our local communities over the past 15 years. Hear the incredible stories of young adults and families who have received services through Youth Villages and how their lives have changed for the better.
There are 46,736 children and 2,271 young adults in state care and they need our help to live successfully and achieve independence. They face unimaginable challenges and lack the necessary skills and support systems to achieve success. Our Intercept® and LifeSet™ programs are changing that with the help of donors like you.
This unforgettable evening will raise funds to provide access to our life-changing services. Together, we will change the trajectory of young people’s lives!
