The Youth and Family Resource Center in Raleigh transformed into a skate haven this past weekend as families gathered for the Youth on Deck skateboard giveaway. Young people enjoyed a day of fun, community, and outdoor recreation. The nearby skatepark in Commissioner Caswell's district is a great place to keep the fun rolling all summer long.

The fun has officially begun! 🛹

Last week, we hosted a skateboard giveaway at the YFRC, and it looks like some of our recipients are already putting their new boards to good use (with their safety gear, of course! 😉).

We even spotted one furry friend getting in on the action. 🐈

There’s nothing better than seeing young people excited, active, and enjoying something new. We love to see it and can’t wait to do it again!

Be sure to join us at the next giveaway, you won’t want to miss it! 💙

Cheers to new beginnings! 🎉💙

Today we’re celebrating our Assessment Manager, Antario Dotson, as he starts his next adventure. We’re sad to see him go, but so grateful for all he’s poured into the YFRC, our team, and the youth we serve.

Wishing you nothing but success in this next chapter! 🚀

Thank you to our partners who joined us for the Shelby County Youth & Family Resource Center Open House last Friday!

We enjoyed the chance to showcase how the YFRC works alongside community stakeholders to support youth and families across Shelby County. By coordinating with partner organizations and providing key resources on-site, we help make connections to the right services when families need them most.

We appreciate our stakeholders time, insight, and commitment to strengthening the support network for youth in our community! 💚🧡
