School Outreach

Our School Outreach team has a strong presence in each school district in the county. Along with the Prevention Programming that our team does, the Student Assistance Program (SAP) also has strong roots within many of the schools throughout the county. Through their services, they can recommend groups to help a student and their family to help them overcome and address the challenges/barriers they may be facing in school or outside of school.

Stewards of Children

Stewards of Children is a prevention training program that teaches adults how to prevent, recognize, and react responsibly to child sexual abuse. The YSB, in partnership with Centre County United Way, the YMCA, and Centre Safe can bring this two hour program to any adult group that wants to  increase knowledge, improve attitudes and change child-protective behavior. This evidence-based program will teach adults how to act responsibly to help keep kids safe. To arrange a training for your church, civic group, or staff, please call us at 814-237-5731.
