Wind Youth Services Mission Statement

Our mission is to engage youth experiencing homelessness who need safety from the streets and access to resources to help them move from crisis to healthy functioning and independence.

At Giving Through Jewelry, 10% of all sales are donated to a charity of the buyers choice. We realize that there are a lot of charities to choose from so we would like to highlight some of our favorites. February’s featured charity is Wind Youth Services.  Check out our FACEBOOK page at the beginning of each month to see how much was donated.

Wind Youth Services is Sacramento County’s only program serving homeless youth. Through our programs and services, Wind Youth Services provides homeless and at-risk youth between the ages of 12 and 24 with basic safety net and survival services and a safe place to stay. Wind Youth Services operates these critical community programs:

• Street Outreach
• Case Management
• Youth and Family Counseling
• Wind House – Youth Shelter
• Wind Center
