Activities or mission (Part I)

To know,love and serve homeless youth and young adults so they achieve more stability, sobriety and social and economic well-being.We provide physical relief to help meet immediate needs,but guidance conseling is our primary aim.

  • Client Services: Street Youth Ministry (SYMin) serves street-dependent youth (clients) with three strategies: meet them where they are and provide some physical relief,engaged them in our core services where we build and help them build relationships, and help them make changes to their lives as they set goals and priorities for growth, healing and recovery. In 2023, SYMin completed our sixth year of operation in our rented facility near the University of Texas. We transitioned from entirely pop-up events in borrowed facilities prior to 2017 and by the end of the year in Dececember we were serving in that location as well as around Austin and San Marcos in six other pop-up locations weekly. We began moving into our new location in North Central Austin with a long-term lease. The previous location was no longer Continued on Schedule O

    Expenses $476,880 · Grants $154,256

  • Internships: SYMin trains future leaders through our paid internship program. During the 10-week experience, interns are trained to lead volunteer-based, urban poverty-informed ministries. Some use their training to serve or start ministry work at their churches where they belong. Other use the internships to augment humanitarian aspects of their planned careers, e.g., teaching, legal, medical. A few stay with SYMin as team members. The Organization has developed a specific and repeatable training curriculum that all staff and interns receive, including a textbook on street youth culture,weekly video discussion of the book, weekly video training and handouts on practical skills, a weekly project to cement the learning in place, Continued on Schedule O

    Expenses $78,578

  • Volunteer Services: SYMin organizes and trains workers through our volunteer program. The easing of the pandemic has given us an opportunity to begin to regrow the program. In 2023, 667 volunteers (up 104% from the prior year) helped SYMin, and they contributed a total of 5,122 hours (up 65%). Volunteers made deliveries of food, clothing and supplies more than 2,000 times for a total estimated impact of $149,805 (up 6%). Recruiting, organizing, thanking, and sustaining hundreds of volunteers who show Gods love to clients in unexpected and delightful ways is what the program is all about. SYMin never tires of inviting people into ministry. This was the year that volunteerism returned in a big way after the pandemic. Some volunteers accept our invitation to serve clients directly alongside our team on a regular basis. Direct volunteering Continued on Schedule O
