StandUp for Kids Denver was established in 1991 and has served youth in our community in a variety of ways ever since. We are a 100% volunteer-driven organization committed to meeting young people where they are.

Our mission is to end the cycle of youth homelessness, with a focus on street outreach and mentoring. At the heart of our work is true friendship. We meet youth where they are and wherever they are, consistently, without judgment, and with the assurance that we will always show up.

When young people are ready, we connect them to local resources and services that can support their next steps. And when they’re not, we are still there. Often, what’s missing most is a caring, reliable adult presence. We strive to be that steady support offering trust, encouragement, and hope, one relationship at a time.
