Alexander Youth Network - Volunteer

Alexander Youth Network (AYN) offers sophisticated, top notch mental health treatment for vulnerable kids from fragile economic and family situations, many of whom are in the foster system.  The Charlotte-area residential treatment center is where kids ages 5-14 with severe mental health needs live and go to school while getting the mental health treatment they need. Positive relationships with caring adults are a critical part of helping these kids heal, and on-campus volunteers are an instrumental part of that mission.

New City has a unique opportunity to serve at Alexander Youth Network by helping host a birthday party for kids currently in treatment Thursday, January 29 from 5:30–7:30 pm. at 6220 Thermal Road, Charlotte, NC 28211.. Volunteers serve as “party guests,” with up to eight people helping pass out cake, assisting with a simple activity or craft, and most importantly, being present to help kids feel seen and celebrated.

The kids truly love these parties, and it’s a meaningful, easy way to get involved and make a joyful impact! Please register to serve below.
