Unaccompanied Homeless Youth Act, House Bill 3838, would create state funding to address youth homelessness and its adverse effects on community. This bill was inspired in part by the work of DIAL/SELF. See a quick fact sheet on the bill by clicking here.

Step Program

For the past two months, several volunteers have offered learning opportunities to youth with a focus on career paths and educational pursuits.  Youth completed personal career assessments and interviewed staff from area colleges concerning the admissions process.  They received training on available financial aid and information on course offerings, degrees, clubs and housing.  We are proud to say that all current participants plan to attend GCC for the spring semester.  Some are returning after a successful fall semester while others are just beginning their college experience.
