"I first got involved with Second Story when my kids were in middle school, making snack packs. But the more I learned, the more I realized Second Story is so much more than that house with the purple door." "I can't imagine a young child being homeless, going to bed hungry, or being trafficked. That's why I support Second Story for life." Our board members share why they support Second Story, and their words truly inspire us. From housing for young mothers to after-school programs, job skills training, and support for families, Second Story Story provides safe havens and opportunities to grow and thrive to youth and youth and families in crisis.

Do you want to raise kids who stand by their principles? Growing up, my parents instilled in me the importance of honesty, kindness, and hard work. These values have been my compass throughout life. Now, as a parent, I aim to pass these same values onto my children. We regularly have family discussions about what matters most to us and how we can live by our values every day. What core values do you want to pass on to your kids? Let’s discuss how we can nurture these values in our homes. What core values are most important in your family? Share your stories and let's help each other expand our vision!
