Alumni Stories

The Annual Point in Time count will be held the week of January 22, 2018. This effort organized by Partners in Care identifies the number of homeless individuals and families living on Oahu. An accurate understanding of needs helps direct resources from the federal government and other funding resources. It is important to understand the number of youth that are currently unsheltered on our island in order to be able to adequately provide assistance and meet their needs.

If you are interested in volunteering, please email info@ryse.flywheelstaging.com. There will be a mandatory training with youth providers on Friday, January 19 at 6:15 p.m. at the YO House (415 Keoniana St.). Outreach workers will provide the necessary information to ensure that you have a great experience. You will also be able to determine the time and location for volunteering the following week.
