Youth-Reach is willing and able to accept applicants who are from anywhere in the United States . There is no consideration of the ability or inability to pay for our services as the ministry provided by Youth-Reach is free of charge. Youth-Reach accepts applicants without consideration of race or ethnic background. Young people who may be dealing with their gender identity or struggling with same-sex addictions may receive help if they are ready to renounce this lifestyle and seek healing and freedom. Youth-Reach is affective with residents who are facing addictions to drugs and alcohol, along with rebellion, school discipline complications, and legal issues. Youth-Reach is neither licensed for, nor effective with, young people facing mental handicaps that are not traced to environmental causes. Young people often enter Youth-Reach under court supervision and our staff works closely with judges, legal counsel and probation officials.
