The Side Door Youth DropIn is organized around three pillars in the community we serve:
OFFERING A SAFE SPACE..a safe place for youth to hang out after school and other times..a safe place for youth to have fun over games, art, cooking and other activities..a safe place for youth to ask for assistance with school work, job applications,
relationship difficulties and other areas
PROMOTING
AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS..promoting authentic relationships in which youth can share their honest questions and struggles about life, relationships and spirituality..promoting authentic relationships in which we care for one another and carry each other’s burdens by offering a listening ear, practical help and/or prayer..promoting authentic relationships in which we can be who we are warts and all! LIVING LIFE TOGETHER..living life together by finding connection and meaning in the ordinary aspects of life (play, school, work, cooking)..living life together by sharing in the joys and struggles we each face..living life together by challenging each other to grow physically, emotionally,
intellectually, socially and spiritually
