What We Do
At Youth Progress we believe that young people in the juvenile justice and foster care systems are leaders, scholars, artists, athletes and entrepreneurs. Together, we are a diverse and inclusive community of staff and foster parents who provide young people with safe and stable housing and opportunities to grow, learn and succeed. We provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed, engagement-based, and youth-centered programs for young people 13-25 in the custody of the Oregon Department of Human Services or the Oregon Youth Authority.
