Mission: The mission of Homeless Youth Connection (HYC) is to eliminate barriers to graduation for homeless youth and create lasting solutions for a successful future through community support and increased awareness. HYC serves homeless youth ages 13-21 who are attending local high schools. Youth are provided with basic necessities, case management, housing if needed, life skills and mentors to ensure they have the resources to stay in school, complete their education and have a chance at a brighter future. Since our inception ten years ago, we have served more than 2,700 students, and placed more than 100 in host homes. (Less)
