Janus Youth Programs
Mission
We create paths to success by partnering with youth, families, and the community.
Bottom Line
When a young person walks into one of our drop-in centers, they find a warm meal, a hot shower, and clean laundry. When a family gets the keys to their first apartment, their kitchen is already stocked with pots and pans. Government funding doesn't cover shampoo, detergent, or the hundred small household essentials that make a house feel like home – private donations keep those shelves stocked.
Quote
“My mother was never a consistent presence in my life, and then I entered the foster care system where I never quite found a place where I felt like I belonged. Being in a Janus program was the first time I ever felt like I had a family.”
