As we have for over two decades, once again we thank our long-standing and recent volunteers, folks who give so generously of their time, energy and talents to support our work at Youville. We are indebted to all of our volunteers whether regular or occasional; individual or group; on front lines or behind the scenes; working with Moms, children or staff; in our building or off site; providing services or goods- we couldn't manage without you. Your generosity and selfless service to our young families make our work so much more effective. Thank you from everyone at Youville! You are proof that it takes a village to raise a child. All of our children, infant and adolescent, join in our chorus of thanks to each andevery one of you!
