When youth are in crisis, the warning signs aren't always visible.

Children and young adults grappling with grief, trauma, and abuse often experience vulnerability in silence, especially those who have no safety net at home.

For more than 300 young people in our county, living unsheltered on the streets is a daily reality.

Social Advocates for Youth has been offering essential services in four key areas - crisis, counseling, careers, and housing - for the last fifty years. We meet young people where they are, when they need it most, in order to help them thrive.

This year, as our community navigates the impact of the Delta variant, drought, wildfires, and skyrocketing cost of living, our youth will need our services more than ever.

Your pledge to SAY helps lend a voice to the thousands of young people who will utilize our services this year. Help us reach our bold goal of $340,000 for the youth.

Thanks to these generous donors, our first $100K in donations will be matched dollar for dollar:
