StandUp For Kids
|
StandUp For Kids helps homeless and at-risk youths age 21 and younger. Of the over two million young people who face bouts of homelessness each year in the U.S., children makeup about 27 percent, the fastest growing segment, of the U.S. homeless population. StandUp For Kids has been reaching out to counsel and guide these homeless teens on the streets for the past twenty years. See what they're up to and learn how easy it is to get involved.
StandUp For Kids is a national non-profit volunteer outreach organization dedicated to going to the streets and making a difference in the lives of at-risk, homeless and street kids. They do this, every day, in cities across America. They carry out their mission through volunteers who go to the streets in order to find, stabilize and otherwise help homeless and street kids improve their lives.
The mission of StandUp For Kids is to help homeless and at-risk youth. Everyday homeless youth face obstacles that most of us cannot comprehend. Where will I have my next meal? When can I shower? Where will I sleep tonight? StandUp For Kids helps homeless youth tackle some of their everyday obstacles and work towards a life off the streets. From basic necessities such as food, clothing, and hygiene to resources for housing, employment, and education, StandUp For Kids counselors use an open, straightforward and caring counseling approach to help kids reach their full potential.
