California Youth Connection (CYC) is a youth-led advocacy organization of current and former foster youth, ages 14 - 24. The newly formed CYC Pasadena Chapter needs Volunteer Supporters. Volunteer Supporters are particularly important to CYC's youth-led model. Volunteer Supporters collaborate with CYC Members to develop their leadership skills and to ensure CYC members have the resources they need to run a successful Chapter, attend leadership conferences, and participate in policy activities to create the change members want to see in the child welfare system. Supporters take on an "ally" role by providing social capital, professional tips, and guidance. The commitment is about 10 hours a month.
We appreciate your interest in supporting the Birthday Club! We are closely monitoring best practices and guidelines on how to prevent the spread of COVID-19. As a result, we will be suspending the Birthday Club and will temporarily decline gifts from supporters until DCFS renders it safe to do so. All Birthday Club supporters will be notified as soon as this program is back in action. Thank you again for all that you do to support children and families of our community!
