REACH Youth Programs
Providing Opportunities for Youth
Youth$ave - is a financial education course for kids ages 9-18 living in REACH housing that teaches many essential financial skills and how to achieve their goals. It’s a program that pays your child to save money! Youth attend bi-weekly classes during the school year, earn community service credits, and make deposits at least monthly to their savings account. REACH matches their savings and helps them purchase their artistic, athletic, educational or entrepreneurial goal.
Enrollment takes place every July and August, and the program starts in September. Space is limited, so apply early! Contact .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) at 503.501.5732 with any questions.
