CO - Youth Engagement and Community Organizer - Shiloh
 
 
 
Youth MOVE CO is a partnership with COACT - Colorado's System of Care and the Continuums of Cares in CO. This VISTA project will build the essential bridges to adulthood for transition age youth (ages 14-25) by expanding resources and enhance services for youth with behavioral health challenges and/or youth at risk of homelessness to help youth thrive. Vista members will help communities implement a coordinated community plan and create local Youth MOVE chapters to engage young people as key partners in addressing service deficiencies, increase youth informed programming development and build better understanding between adult service providers and the young people they serve. VISTA members will work with local youth ages 14- 25 and partners to map and identify developmentally appropriate resources for youth with behavioral health challenges to improve access and enhance services to improve youth transition planning and program access for young people living in poverty. They will assist local communities in building capacity to improve youth informed program improvement using the Y-VAL. Additionally, improve local capacity by developing a Youth MOVE chapter and local volunteers to provide youth peer support to increase engagement of transition aged youth resulting in improved well-being, and education and employment outcomes.
