Youth Intervention Services

YMCA Youth Intervention Services has a wide variety of programs that focus on service to youth coming out of correctional settings, long-term foster care, probation, runaway situations, homelessness, or truancy.  

Our Youth Intervention Services are experiential and specific:

  • Helping youth discover their strengths
  • Building their self confidence and social skills
  • Developing their self image
  • Giving them the skills and insights essential for success

We provide coaching and support to help youth and their families discover their skills and talents, and build a specific plan and process to help them get the services, experiences and ongoing support system they need to succeed.

The YMCA 24-Seven Program has helped me in so many ways.  It gives me a reason to make something of myself, it gives me hope…it showed me that I can get help from people.  I know without the YMCA 24-Seven program I would have went back to jail but thanks to you making me work hard for everything I am a better person.
