It takes a village
to raise a child.

Sometimes, a
village is all there is.

Our Place gives hope to challenged
youth, provides them with community, and
equips them for profound change.

We believe every child
deserves a chance.

“In the beginning, I thought, ‘What is this place?’ It was a place to chill, a place with hot meals. The people were okay. I‘d hang, maybe play some ping pong. But I didn’t really to talk to anyone. No one could be trusted.”

“Soon, it started to feel... safe. A game of chess, a Shabbaton, a meeting, some music. The chaggim were actually fun. I saw they help you move forward and look like they care. But I thought I would never tell anyone what happened to me.”

deserves a chance.

“I got close to one of the staff and let my guard down. With tenderness and compassion, she listened, and didn’t judge. They hooked me up with resources and I began to heal. I got a job–it’s a start. I felt like I could feel myself for the first time.”

We believe every child
deserves a chance.

“Today, I am feeling a sense of fulfillment I never knew was possible. I am grateful for the healthy relationships I have in my life and the opportunities that lay ahead. College? Israel? Is it time to settle down? Thank you, Our Place. You have given me hope.
