Building communities where children and youth thrive.
Mission
Collaborating with Oregon communities, youth, families, and traditionally excluded persons to prevent violence and promote healing, belonging, and child and youth wellbeing.
Vision
Every Oregon child/youth experiences safety, belonging, and connection, every family has the support and resources they need, and community members routinely act to advance this vision.
We Work In 3 Ways:
Centering Youth, Survivors, and Equity Promotion
We are research and community activists who value:
- Life experience as expertise
- Primary prevention and systems level change
- Innovation, equity and antiracism
- Youth, survivors, and persons from traditionally excluded groups as central designers, decision makers, and implementers in our work
