Youth & Young Adults

Our CARE Collaborators provide peer counseling, organize recreational activities, and offer systems navigation assistance for justice- and system- impacted youth in schools and on the streets. Our youth programming connects peers to education, housing, counseling, and other supports that align with their specified goals.

Mutual Aid

Our Mutual Aid Team (MAT) provides weekly outreach to distribute food, drinks, naloxone, propane, and other supplies to our justice-impacted neighbors on the streets, and connects neighbors to resources within the community. 

Community Education

CARE works collaboratively with Washington’s key stakeholders to identify methods of re-allocating funds and other resources from carceral systems to services benefitting our most marginalized residents.

Donate to Justice Impacted Youth!

Our CARE Collaboration program provides peer counseling and systems navigation assistance to youth and young adults. Every donation brings us one step closer to transforming the lives of justice-impacted youth, giving them a fair chance to rise above their past and shape a brighter future. As we strive to reach our crowdfunding goal of $10,000 before the end of 2023, your generous support can ignite hope and create tangible change, ensuring that every young individual we assist has the tools they need to thrive.
