Review for Sunset Youth Services, San Francisco, CA, USA
One of SYS beliefs is that all youth are valuable and have a role to play in society, there are no disposable kids. I am amazed at the support and care that happens at SYS. When I visit the youth community center, the staff are always involved in helping a kid or parent work through an issue. The staff and their children attach to one another like parents, children, and siblings through thick and thin. I have been to SYS barbeques and community get-togethers where I see this community live out its beliefs like a family. Kids are encouraged to be themselves through their art, play, music, education, conversation, or parenthood. Everyone is welcome no matter what has happened in their past or where they are in life now. Many of the staff were at one time SYS kids themselves, which gives them a special connection with todays kids and parents. It is a privilige to be involved.
