StandUp for Kids – Kitsap County is part of a national nonprofit organization dedicated to the mission of ending the cycle of youth homelessness and its economic impact by providing support and resources to youth experiencing hardships beyond their control. The statistics are shocking, and the dangers are real. Click here to learn more: THE REALITY

Since 1992, our volunteers in Kitsap County have been assisting unaccompanied, homeless and at-risk youth and young parents ages 12-24 with basic necessities, and partnering with local schools, programs, community partners and nonprofit organizations to connect them with resources in the hopes of helping them transition from surviving to thriving.

We are so grateful to the many donors and volunteers who have supported our efforts over the past 30 years, and we can do so much more! Please consider donating, joining our team and contacting us to learn how YOU can be part of the mission to end the cycle of youth homelessness!

“If I hadn’t found StandUp for Kids I don’t know if I would be dead or alive. I would definitely still be using. I wouldn’t have the leadership skills and the work ethic I have now. No matter who you are or where you’re from you’re going to hit a rough patch sometime in your life. I’m grateful that StandUp for Kids was there to embrace me and help me and save me during my tough times. To everyone who supports StandUp for Kids thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
