Our YOTO Summer Board Retreat was a wonderful opportunity to come together, reflect on our impact, and prepare for the exciting year to come.

We are incredibly grateful for our returning and new Board Members, our past Board Members who continue to support our mission, and our amazing Youth Action Board members who joined us this weekend! Your passion, leadership, and commitment to YOTO help make our work possible, and we're excited for all that's to come!

Thank you for investing your time, talents, and hearts in the youth we serve. 💜💛

Many students across Pima County are heading back to the classroom! 📚💜

As the new school year begins, YOTO youth need your help collecting hygiene products through our Back to School Challenge.

Access to everyday hygiene essentials helps youth feel confident, healthy, and ready to focus on their education.

Every donation helps stock our Mini Mall and supports local youth working toward their high school diploma.

Want to help? Host a Back to School donation drive or shop our Amazon Wishlist to have items shipped directly to YOTO.
