The Delta Lambda chapter will be supporting the Center for Youth in Rochester, New York for the academic year!
Vision: We envision a world where all youth grow and thrive in an equitable and beloved community.
Mission: We partner with youth to realize their full potential, by creating opportunities, removing barriers and promoting social justice.
Promise: Started by kids for kids – we offer services rooted in a culture of belonging, growth, and understanding to ensure youth voices will always be heard and respected.
Shelter, Housing & Crisis Services - “The Center for Youth provides emergency shelters, transitional & permanent housing, referrals, advocacy and more. And just as we’ve done for over 45 years, we stand by the side of our LGBTQ youth, ensuring a solid foundation for each young person to achieve their goals.”
School Based Services - “The Center delivers an array of school-based services to thousands of young people each year, including the Alternative-to-Suspension program, Crisis Intervention, After-School Program at Urban Choice Charter School and Prevention Education Services intervention/ prevention/ help zone, as well as school-based counseling services, and child and family therapy.”
