Annual ReportFY2016
Randell Walton © 2016
Dear Friends,We are so pleased to provide this report to you in this, our 65th year of service to the children, youth and families of our community. We know that Friends of Youth holds a special place in your heart and we’d like to personally thank you for being on our team for youth. Whether you’ve been a client, a staff member, a donor, a volunteer, or a funder, you have been a part of this year’s successes. Thank you!
Here are a few highlights of the year just ending:
New ProgrammingThis year we launched a new education program in partnership with King County, Seattle Education Access, and Lake Washington Technical College. The Eastside Reengagement Center works with youth experiencing homelessness and crisis to increase graduation, GED completion and college enrollment.
Strengthening StaffThe improving job market has made it more challenging to recruit hourly staff, key members of our team. In August, we hired a new HR professional to support the recruitment and hiring of staff and we are committed to steadily increasing the hourly wages for these staff members, with a goal to reach $15/hour by 2018.
New ChallengesThe Opioid epidemic continues to negatively impact young lives throughout our community. Our Substance Use Disorder and Mental Health Counseling staff are working tirelessly to respond to the ongoing crisis. We now have overdose kits available at all of our sites to ensure that we can respond to an overdose emergency.
As a foster care provider for the entirety of our 65 year history, we are concerned by the dearth of licensed foster homes available to children in need of care. We recruit and license foster parents throughout the region and we are working with our partners, funders and foster parents to increase the number of caring, loving homes available to children.
Homelessness continues to increase in our region. This year we embarked on a new diversion project, working to connect youth with the resources they need to avoid entering the housing system. New funding from King County helped us to increase counseling and staff support for young people struggling with significant barriers to housing success.
We are privileged to have had the opportunity to assist over 6,500 young people this year, each one unique and valuable with so much potential and promise. We celebrate our youth, and the hard work they have accomplished to create happy, healthy and independent lives. Your support of our mission gives them this opportunity, and we are grateful for your gifts of time, talent and treasure. Together, we are achieving our vision of a world where every young person has every opportunity to succeed.
Terry Pottmeyer, President & CEO Terry Hall, Board Chair Emeritus

Thanks to YOU We Invest in Young Families
Friends of Youth supports homeless young parents as they
learn the skills they need to exit homelessness, achieve
self-sufficiency and create stable, loving futures for themselves
and their children. Housing is a crucial component of this
journey. In FY2016 over 86% of our young families exited
our transitional housing to safe, stable housing.
Thank YouFriends of Youth is grateful to the many individuals, foundations and corporations whose gifts help change the lives of the youth we serve. We have taken great care to accurately list all of our donors. We sincerely apologize for any misspellings or omissions and would appreciate the opportunity to correct our records; please email our Development Team at [email protected] with any updates or corrections.

Vision Friends of Youth envisions all youth having every opportunity to succeed.
Mission Friends of Youth delivers a broad range of services to youth and their families to improve their emotional stability and self-sufficiency.
Our Core ValuesYouth FirstEquityCollaborationRelationshipsQualityAccountability
Thanks to YOU We Invest in Education
Homeless high school students in the state of
Washington have dropout rates (31.3%) almost as
high as their graduation rates (46%). While we work
to end youth homelessness, we are also working to
increase the academic achievement of those who
are experiencing homelessness in our community.
Our recently opened Eastside Reengagement
Center supports disconnected youth in completing
their education by helping students address barriers
to academic and vocational success as they
work toward earning their GED and planning for
additional education.
In FY2016 47 young people enrolled in our
program and restarted their educational journey.
Thanks to YOU Young People Succeed Only twenty-two years old, Tina told staff during her first night at the Landing that she was overwhelmed and didn’t have a lot of hope. She enrolled in case management and discussed her goals with shelter staff. She was determined to get a good job and housing.
In less than a month of staying at shelter, Tina found a steady job that she enjoyed. The leadership qualities she showed while in shelter opened the door to the Landing’s leadership development program, Step Up.
More determined than ever, Tina began working with Friends of Youth’s Rapid Re-Housing Case Manager to pursue permanent housing. She saved money from her job, often waking up at 4 A.M. to catch the bus for work. Within weeks of starting her new job, she was promoted to supervisor and received a raise. With help from Friends of Youth’s Rapid Re-Housing Program, Tina and a good friend moved into their own apartment.
On her last night at shelter—having stayed for just over two months—Tina told staff that she felt overwhelmed again, but in a good way. “It all started here,” she said. “This place gave me hope.”
