StandUp For Kids

For 23 years, StandUp for Kids – Orange County has been dedicated to improving the lives of homeless and at-risk youth and young adults. We provide the resources, mentorship, and support they need to escape homelessness and build stable, self-sufficient futures.

With over 30,000 youth experiencing homelessness or instability in Orange County, the need for our services has never been greater. These young individuals face serious risks, including gang violence, substance abuse, human trafficking, illness, and hunger.

Through preventive services and crisis intervention, we meet youth where they are and walk alongside them as they move from crisis to stability, equipping them with the tools needed for long-term independence.
