Youth Drop-In Center

Located in The Dalles, the Youth Drop-In Center is a safe and welcoming space for youth ages 14–23 who are experiencing homelessness, have run away, or need a break from a challenging home life. We provide access to basic needs and the space is also stocked with everything needed to create a comfortable, youth-friendly environment including books, games, art supplies, a TV, and a gaming system. Every other Tuesday is Food Bank Day, when youth can stop by to pick up groceries from the Oregon Food Bank. We also host fun activities like movie nights, craft nights, and free field trips throughout the year.
