Today, our Board of Directors came together for a great day of conversation, collaboration and planning at our annual board retreat!

We talked about where we want to go, the steps we need to take to get there and how we can continue working better together to support young people in our community.

A special shoutout to our moderator, Lisa Bass, and to Susanne Chakravarty and Lisa Davidson with for guiding our strategic planning conversations and helping us develop an 18-month action plan to take San Diego Youth Services to the next level!

Grateful for our board and the ideas, energy and commitment they bring to our mission. Excited for what's ahead!

A little behind-the-scenes with our CEO, Jonathan Castillo! 🎬

As we prepare for the Solidarity Journey, he shares why collaboration matters and how coming together can make a difference for young people experiencing homelessness.

Alongside the YMCA of San Diego County, Home Start Inc, The San Diego LGBT Community Center 🌈, SBCS, and Lifeline Community Services we’re raising awareness and working toward one shared goal: ending youth homelessness.

Together, we can create change. We’re excited for the journey ahead!

Behind the scenes of our video shoot with Lucky Duck Foundation at our Storefront Youth Emergency Shelter!

Storefront is the only emergency shelter in San Diego County for children and teens ages 12 to 17.

With more than 23,000 school-age children experiencing homelessness in San Diego County, so many young people need a safe place to sleep and someone in their corner.

We’re grateful to Lucky Duck for supporting San Diego Youth Services and helping us work toward a future where every young person has a safe place to call home.
