Annie
After I was discharged, I called the staff, and they always took the time to talk to me even when I was not doing well.

I have become better with my language, anger, and have built a better relationship with my family and I have stayed sober.

Lancaster staff are the family I never had. They are patient with me and help me trough my struggles. They never give up on me.

Matthew
Since moving into the Main Home two years ago, I’ve been able to find my own identity, and receive the help I need for my mental health. The staff are very supportive and always encourage me to do things that will showcase my talents. The Main home feels like a family setting, and we always have fun.

Transitional Housing was the the best thing that could have happened for me. Through endless support, I learned not only to do basic chores and to take care of my own place, but I also learned how to grow and to develop the strength to get past all of the traumatic events I’ve experienced throughout my life.

Sam
Seeing my worker every week is amazing, nothing like any other addiction help service I’ve experienced. He picks me up, and takes me for a cup of coffee which makes me feel cared for. My worker helps me feel in control of my own addiction recovery instead of being controlled by it, and that alone is valuable to me.

Kinley
While using the services at Youth QUEST Central I found that everything in my life started to be better. I came here for help with food, but also learned about regulating emotions, coping skills, and how to overcome so much.

The day that I was put into the care of Youth Impact Jeunesse, my whole like went upside down for the better. The staff have helped me learn who I am and that it’s okay to have a past. They are helping me regain a healthy relationship with my parents. I am excited to make more memories with the staff and youth until I can be on my own feet and go to college. I can’t imagine where I would be without this help and light.

Sam
I started coming to Youth QUEST Central when I was 15 for help with my addictions. It was a safe place where I could relax and not have to constantly look over my shoulder. It gave me a place to eat, get warm, get clothing, shower, and get advice. If it wasn’t for Youth QUEST Central, I don’t know how I would have survived the streets.

Parys
Because of Transitional Housing, I was able to finish and graduate high school. With a stable environment, I was able to rebuild my relationship with my mother. The structure and accountability I received in the program helped me structure my life.
