The United Methodist Youth Home is located in Evansville Indiana. It has been in service over forty years providing programs
for at-risk youth to become responsible and productive members of the community. Through its residential, day education and
truancy intervention programs, youth are turning their lives around and getting an education and eventual job in the community.
The residential program currently houses 8 females and 8 males in different structures and assists youth having dysfunctional
family situation, substance abuse, truancy issues or social issues. The Day Education program assists at-risk youth who are
struggling at their home schools and need assistance obtaining their GED. The truancy intervention program is a home, school
and community based intervention program to prevent truancy and improve academic success.
This summer we collected school supplies such as notebooks, pencils, pens, paint, markers and art canvases to be used
in the Day Education program.
