$30,000 Goal

Voice of the Youth is a mentor & leadership program. We provide resources, and events to help bridge the gap for underserved and homeless individuals and families in Sacramento and surrounding communities. We have over 20 programs. 

We aim to be a leading organization; providing training, mentorship, and motivation as we foster an atmosphere of growth wherein youth can advance toward greatness. We innovatively help our clients gain insight and self-awareness through interactive group discussion and age-appropriate
activities.

VOY services are a valuable resource for guiding our youth on the road to stable and productive lives. We emphasize the simple philosophy of PPC (Patience, Passion, and Consistency). Our clients experience the empowering transition from victim to victor by discovering how not to allow trials, tribulations, or pride to serve as obstacles on the journey to success.
