We work hard to ensure teens and young adults exit our program with the life skills needed to support themselves and find a job. In fact, we are proud to have offered paid positions here at San Diego Youth Services to some of these talented young people! (pictured) We're partnering with local businesses to help teens aged 15 to 17 develop work skills and job readiness so they don't just survive, but thrive. Our goal is to divert from initial or repeat engagement with the juvenile justice system by connecting the youth to supportive individuals in the community offering peer mentoring and on-the-job training at local businesses. Learn more about our program and how you can help a young person build their job skills and their confidence: https://lnkd.in/gzdkn8j #supportouryouth

Our Youth Emergency Shelter is the only emergency night shelter in the county for children and teens experiencing homelessness. We provide shelter and support services for those ages 12 to 17 who don't have a safe place to live or who are victims of physical or sexual abuse, neglect or exploitation. When these kids walk through our doors, they have immediate access to a bed, shower and laundry services, family-style meals, case management, independent living skills training, health education, computers for schoolwork, expressive arts therapy and more. We make sure they receive the wraparound support to help them find stability in their lives. Learn more about our housing support services: https://lnkd.in/gQ3YHBdq #endyouthhomelessness
