Youth and Families

Every child has talents and abilities, whether they are born with them or develop over time. And when parents and other caregivers nurture these strengths, the family fabric grows stronger — and so does the community.

Vanguard’s work on topics affecting youth and families focuses on keeping families together, communicating and expressing their needs — whether physical, social or emotional. Our projects champion individuality and inclusion, and support infants to college-age young adults.
