SERVING THE SHENANDOAH VALLEY THROUGH SERVICE, LEADERSHIP, AND EMPOWERMENT
We come alongside our region’s youth to support them in becoming individuals who contribute to their communities, lead successful lives, and achieve future aspirations.
A Reimagined Student Union
We see the Raymond Santmyers Youth Center as the setting for the new Student Union, a welcoming space for students that allows them to build confidence and positive relationships in a drop in environment that offers the freedom to pursue their needs and passions in a safe space.
Our Service programs support our community in both body and spirit.
