Operates community-based programs in Oregon and Washington for children and youth and their families. A network of over 40 programs includes runaway and homeless youth services in the form of street outreach, 24-hour access and assessment, emergency and short-term shelter, family reunification, transitional housing, and independent living services; residential and shelter services for youth in the custody of the Oregon Youth Authority and Oregon's child welfare system; a scholarship program for former clients; and an urban agriculture program. Face-to-face contacts with runaway and homeless youth are completed through an all-volunteer street outreach program on the streets every night.
