Our expectations for 2010 continue to be greater than ever! We must continue to be the message, push forward and insist that children should not have to survive on the streets! We are compelled to accomplish more for our kids.
- Provide services, at least 60,000 times to homeless, street and at-risk youth.

- Position Regional Directors to help oversee 20 of our programs; one in Southern California and another in the Northeast Region.
- Position at least three National trainers to help with training and new volunteers.
- Start a Don’t Run Away Club in an additional 20 High Schools/Colleges.
- Start a STANDUP FOR KIDS' Program in at least five new cities. Possibilities include: Nashville, Colorado Springs, Salt Lake City, Pittsburgh, Baton Rouge, New Orleans, San Francisco, Madison, San Bernardino and Columbia.
