Dreams in Focus

​Creemos que la gente de Whatcom y Skagit tiene en mente la justicia y la equidad. Sabemos cuánto quiere esta comunidad marcar la diferencia. Y también entendemos que, cuando se trata de abordar cuestiones sistémicas, es fácil sentirse abrumado.

 

No vamos a endulzarlo: los jóvenes sin hogar son un problema. Sin embargo, creemos que es un problema que se puede solucionar. Todos podemos desempeñar un papel para acabar con la falta de vivienda entre los jóvenes, no sólo los más ricos entre nosotros. Hay muchas maneras de dar un paso adelante, desde ser voluntario hasta donar bienes nuevos y en buen estado, pero una de las más fáciles (y más efectivas) es convertirse en un Guerrero del Amor.

 

Un Love Warrior es una persona profundamente comprometida con su comunidad y ofrece donaciones mensuales que apoyan directamente nuestra misión de erradicar la falta de vivienda de los jóvenes en los condados de Whatcom y Skagit. Los programas que ofrecemos van más allá de las necesidades básicas y abarcan un modelo de atención holístico y centrado en la curación, que incluye iniciativas como Queer Youth Services y Teen Court. Nuestro enfoque tiene como objetivo fomentar el crecimiento y la resiliencia a largo plazo en los jóvenes, pero para sostener estos servicios vitales, dependemos del apoyo continuo de la comunidad.

¿Por qué apoyarnos?

When Kate and her husband arrived in Bellingham with only backpacks, they hadn’t anticipated facing houselessness. The Ground Floor, Northwest Youth Services' drop-in center, became a lifeline, providing them essentials like showers, food, and a safe place to rest. Through the transitional housing program HUSLY, they gained stability and eventually moved into their own apartment.

Today, Kate’s family has a brighter future, thanks to these life-changing resources.
