Tuck and Run Youth Campus
Coming
Soon!!
Nevada has the highest rate of unaccompanied, unsheltered youth in the country, and by region, Las Vegas comes in second nation wide. Approximately 92% of homeless youth are unsheltered on any given evening, but there are only 2 emergency shelters listed within the Las Vegas Valley that are focused on youth participants. There are few more that allow youth to stay with a parent or guardian. This is not enough. The purpose of the Tuck and Run Youth Campus is to become a physical manifestation of the mobile application. Our goals for the Campus include:
To concentrate on building trust based relationships with Las Vegas Youth
To establish a comprehensive system of wrap around services where youth can receive all the help they need in one place
To establish a location where youth can have fun and get help at the same time, on their terms
To establish a centralized location for community planing and collaborations
