The Youth Challenge Fund is a nonprofit organization committed to building strong families by serving to bridge the cultural-generational gap between parents and teenagers.
At a time when an already confusing youth culture is changing quickly, Youth Challenge Fund helps parents, youth workers, educators, and others understand teenagers and their culture so that they will be better equipped to help children and teens navigate the challenging world of adolescence.
Founded in 2003 by Vance Day, Youth Challenge Fund has developed an international reputation as a voice providing cutting-edge information, resources and analysis on today’s youth culture.
The mission of Youth Challenge Fund is to work with churches, schools, and community organizations to build stronger relationships between young people and those charged with helping them grow into healthy adulthood.
This mission is accomplished by:
- Helping parents understand and respond to the complex world of their children and teens from a distinctively Christian point of view.
- Equipping teenagers to deal with the challenges of adolescence.
- Raising the youth culture awareness of youth workers, parents and educators, thereby helping them increase their effectiveness with parents, children and teens.
