The City of Evanston’s Youth and Family Services Division was established to provide opportunities for Evanston’s youth and young adults to become active and productive citizens of the community. Our comprehensive youth development program model gives young people with life challenges, multiple, closely aligned pathways to success. The division promotes long-term sustained engagement for 14 to 26 years old, and positive relationships with adults. We also seek to provide young people with a vast network of support to become confident, competent, resilient, and self-sustaining adults.
