Mission Statement

MISSION STATEMENT

Youth Quest's mission is to give at-risk youth with various behavioral and emotional problems the potential for success. This will be done by assisting them with a stable treatment home and family, an exemplary helping staff, and a broader base of life enhancing social skills to enable them to live more productive lives, and in turn provide more healthy and functional homes for the community tomorrow.

Description

Youth Quest is an outstanding organization of staff and volunteers who care deeply about at-risk youth with behavioral and emotional problems. Our staff and volunteers have the education, training, and program support to successfully carry out the mission of providing a new opportunity to learn social, academic, and independent living skills which will help them develop resilience to the abuse and neglect most of them endured as children. Through helping the children and families learn these skills, many youth enjoy a better quality of life, are able to break the cycle of poverty and abuse, and continue to develop pro-social skills that influence future generations for good.

Our goal is to offer this program through a whole spectrum of services so that the youth and families served will find the support of Youth Quest through every service that is provided providing wraparound mental health care. We need the help of dedicated volunteers and board members to carry out this mission!
