We are doing this through two new programs the first being the expansion of our Drop-In Center through KYC Connections. We know that life doesn’t end for our young people once they leave the Center which is why we’re excited to create new programming with a more holistic focus on young folx moving from surviving to thriving. This year, our 25th year, we are expanding our capacity to serve, support, and further meet the emerging and basic needs of young people, with a focus on wellness, independent living/life skills and addressing the needs of homeless, housing insecure/vulnerable youth. From corporate sponsorships, individual contributions, event support, and volunteering our community continues to show up to support and invest in our youth. ![]() How has the Columbus community supported your growth?Ĭolumbus has been tremendously supportive over the past 25 years.
