As a start-up organization, much of our work is in development and will unfold as we continue to gain momentum. However we are working hard in a number of important areas.
CAPACITY BUILDING
Increasing the resources, expertise, and services across the state of Washington that strengthen young people, families and communities to prevent and end youth and young adult homelessness.
PUBLIC POLICY AND ADVOCACY
Providing education and advocacy to support public policy and services that are culturally relevant, prioritizes equity, and strengthens young people, families and local communities.
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
We have a targeted focus on and advocate to improve the continuum of behavioral health services (mental health, substance use disorder and/or co-occurring disorders) available to children, youth, young adults, and families to prevent and end homelessness.
GENERATION NEXT
Building capacity includes supporting young professionals, especially BIPOC and those who identify as LGBTQ2S+ to receive the support, training, and compensation to ensure representation at all levels of human service organizations and systems of care.
