Northfield Union of Youth: A Year of Impact, Growth, and Empowerment This past year has been nothing short of transformational for NUY. We’ve witnessed incredible growth, deepened connections with youth, and expanded our impact in meaningful ways. Here’s a glimpse of what we’ve accomplished together: ✨ Over 380 youth walked through our doors at The Key, making more than 5,000 visits to access a safe space, friendship, and vital resources. 🏠 Through the Wallflower Project, we provided safe shelter for 14 youth, totaling over 160 nights of security, care, and dignity. 🗣️ We’ve had over 250 one-on-one conversations with youth, strengthening relationships that help us understand and support their individual needs. 💬 75 youth received support for their mental health, and we facilitated referrals and access to critical resources. 💪 59 youth received assistance with substance use issues, 6 of whom were referred to the MOST program for additional support.   These numbers are powerful, but the stories behind them are even more inspiring. From helping youth leave unsafe living conditions to supporting them as they secure their first apartments, we are committed to ensuring every young person in Northfield has access to the stability they deserve.   The Wallflower House — a transitional home for youth ages 18-24 - will open in early 2025.   Thank you for believing in youth empowerment, for standing with us, and for helping us open new doors of opportunity every single day. ...
