LC Valley Youth Resource Center

Michelle & Ed King

Every night, approximately 30 displaced teens across the LC Valley are looking for a safe place to sleep. Working alongside local law enforcement, local school districts, and child services, the Center helps fill the gaps between existing programs for teens. They provide an after-school drop-in center including snacks, dinner, showers, laundry and a safe place for homework and socialization. They also provide overnight accommodations for up to 16 displaced teens each night.
