  • Mission

    Every young immigrant deserves to be safe. Young children who flee violence, abuse and poverty need an advocate, not an adversary. The Young Center is their champion in an immigration system that is not designed to treat children as children. We help assure that their needs are put foremost and their best interests take priority. They’ve taken the first step to improve their futures, and we step in, with their assent, to help them move forward.
