Did you get to read the full article!? Check it out what it took for co-founders Raquel Shipp and Adam Shipp to serve The Future of Sacramento!
Sacramento Youth Center (SYC), a nonprofit organization, is revolutionizing youth enrichment and support in North Sacramento. The center was opened in 2019 by Raquel and Adam Shipp to offer varied recreational and educational activities for the local youth, including a black box theater, recording studio, full-service cafe, and charter school. Through a strong network of donors and grant funding, the SYC focuses on developing youth's mental and behavioral health, and preparing them for the future. Their flagship peer-mentor training program has already served 400 students, utilizing an empathetic approach to mental health support. Additionally, SYC offers workforce development through internships and paid training programs, including positions at their on-site cafe, Uptown Grounds Coffee and Chai. The center is more than a safe space—it's a haven of growth, support, and opportunity for Sacramento's youth.

Today we purchased the Sacramento Youth Center building and the dream is now a reality! We want to thank the youth who bring this space alive with hope and vibrancy. This is for you and the future that you hold in your mind's eye. We also want to thank our staff who serve the community with great care. Thank you to our volunteers and donors who give to this work. Thank you to the partners who serve alongside us. Thank you to our family and friends who believed in the dream with us and supported us! And thank you to the neighbors and parents who trust us to serve in our community. We are with you in building a community of hope for our kids and our shared future. See you at the center?
