Youth Opportunity Center

Exists to provide youth with a safe place to develop personal responsibility and accountability to uplift themselves, others, and their community.

Who We Serve: 

Youth between the ages of 12-17 years old that are experiencing any of the following: 

• Relationship struggles with their parents/guardians.
• Struggles with sticking to a curfew and staying home.
• Struggles with school attendance.

How We Do It:

• We get referrals from parents, schools, and others; even from the youth themselves.
• We'll meet with youth and parents to create an agreement to participate in the Y.O.C.
• We'll meet with the youth to create a 6-month case plan and goals.
• Youth who have committed to participate will be referred to programs in the Y.O.C.
• Youth will be eligible to participate in open enrollment activities and programs.
