Grant To Benefit At-Risk CWC will use the grant to help support vulnerable youth

CWC recently received a grant through the Weyerhaeuser – an Oregon area program focused to combat youth homelessness will immediately be put to work through a long-standing collaboration enabled by the Weyerhaeuser,

Notably, our grant evolved with direct assistance from youth with lived experience. CWC continues to identify and prioritize youth at risk through the annual Point in Time census of those experiencing homelessness in Oregon. Local partners will include 15th Night and Looking Glass, both of who work tirelessly to provide resources to youth who are at risk of becoming chronically homeless. These organizations and others will be instrumental in the implementation of this project. The funds are a game-changer for our collective efforts, and we are eager to work locally and nationally to create new strategies for preventing and ending youth homelessness.”
