Fresno has experienced a rising number of youth in crisis. Responding to those in need, Fresno Mission has partnered with local nonprofits, community-based organizations, agencies, and leaders to create one of the most comprehensive youth-service ecosystems in the Central Valley.
The resulting Youth Services Department is here to serve as a convener, connector, facilitator, and guide, linking Fresno’s at-risk and in-crisis youth to critical resources to get their lives back on track. We don’t just meet them at their point of need—we provide clear pathways for success and transformation, equipping them with resources they can use to take control and change the trajectory of their lives.
Fresno Mission is developing a state-of-the-art Youth Center to address both immediate and ongoing developmental needs of youth in crisis. This innovative facility will offer crisis housing, food, counseling, mentoring, a drop-in space, arts programs, sports activities, and a clothing closet. Designed to be a collaborative hub, the Youth Center will not only serve Fresno Mission programs, but also partner with multiple local agencies to further support Fresno’s most vulnerable population—our youth.
This center is a beacon that represents hope and opportunity, ensuring that every young person has a chance for a brighter future.
