Mission: To equip an expanding network of congregations to partner with existing service providers of high-risk youth in providing resources and volunteers through youth services in urban polk county and restorative justice programs in a growing number of rural counties.
Programs: Serve our youth is a non-profit organization dedicated to helping young people succeed in life. We recognize that today's parents and youth face many challenges. We help families face those challenges by providing youth with positive, caring adults who can act as friends, mentors and encouragers. Serve our youth serves many young people ranging in age from four to eighteen. We often serve those who: * have incarcerated parents, * are having difficulties in school or personal relationships, * are involved in the court system, * or are living away from home in a youth shelter, detention center, relative or foster parent's home or other treatment facility. Our youth services programs primarily focus on mentoring and working with youth in juvenile shelters and detention centers.
