First American Title invites you to join us in a Community Outreach to help the:
(Living Options For Teens)
We’re spotlighting this amazing, local organization and collecting items for the LOFT through May and we need your help! Cascade Youth and Family Center’s “LOFT” focuses on prevention, intervention, and crisis services for adolescents and their families. It’s the sole provider of a comprehensive spectrum of services targeted to work with runaway, homeless, and throwaway youth in Deschutes County. They provide emergency shelter and counseling, work to reunite youth with their families, strengthens family relationships, encourages stable living conditions for youth, and supports youth in choosing constructive courses of action, toward education completion and employment. The LOFT utilizes a Positive Youth Development strategy which involves both youth and families in the decision-making process. We believe longterm positive results depend on the empowerment of youth and their families and the support of existing assets.
How can we all help? It’s more simple than you realize; turn flyer over… Don’t forget to ”Like” LOFT on Facebook:
