FREE YBR TRAINING...THIS SUNDAY!

Yellow Brick Road provides free training events to the community every 4 months. These events are FREE and available to anyone over 18 who may wish to learn more about street outreach, volunteer opportunities with Janus Youth Programs and other topics related to youth homelessness, poverty, exploitation and social justice. This is a great opportunity to meet the current outreach volunteers, staff and program supervisor. It is also a great opportunity to learn more about homeless youth resources and street outreach in Washington and Oregon. Applications are always on hand for anyone who wishes to join the team, but there is absolutely no obligation.

Our next training will take place in downtown Portland THIS SUNDAY May 17, 2015 from 2pm until 5pm. This month we welcome you to join us as we prepare for the busy season of summer travelers and what that means for outreach sfaety. We will also be introducing Sergeant Quackenbush of the Portland Police Department foot patrol, who  will be discussing their reinvigorated attention to downtown sidewalks, livability issues and engagement strategies for working comapssionately with homeless folks and summer travelers.
