The Crossroads Program was founded in 1978, through a collaboration of interfaith community leaders committed to providing shelter to runaway and homeless youth.
Since that time, the agency has developed expertise in serving youth who must transition to independent young adulthood without the support and guidance typically provided by family.
That expertise in sheltering youth has expanded to include clinical services for at-risk youth. Programs offer developmental assets, educational and emotional mentoring or coaching, and life skills training. These services have resulted in improved outcomes and enhanced future for the thousands of kids and families served by Crossroads.
Fornesca was unable to attend the ceremony.
