Friends of Youth will host its fifth annual Youth and Family Services fundraising breakfast, 7:30 a.m., Wednesday, Oct. 25, at Meadowbrook Farm Interpretive Center, 1711 Boalch Ave NW, North Bend.

At the event, parents, school leaders, clinicians, and local students will discuss the importance of counseling in schools to promote healthy and positive outcomes for children and families.

Friends of Youth is committed to helping youth develop lifelong skills, and Youth and Family Services are an important part of that effort. They provide counseling services to support students struggling with depression, anxiety, or substance use. Donations from the breakfast will provide critical funding to the program.
