Thank you to Vectren/CenterPoint Energy Company for supporting our youth! Vectren has been a funding partner for a number of years and has helped change the lives of several thousand homeless youth. We couldn't be more grateful!  

The season premiere of Dayton Youth Radio on WYSO aired last week and featured stories from our Daybreak youth and staff. Over the summer, Basim Blunt was on our campus working with Daybreak youth who wanted to tell their stories.  We couldn’t be more proud of them for their courage.  Thank you, Basim and WYSO!
