Pros

Awesome mission... helping foster youth who have aged out of the system.

Cons

They set the youth up for failure here. Management is out of touch with what these kids have dealt with in their pasts. The organization is way too numbers oriented and don't care about the kids at all when it comes down to it. All they care about is numbers. The staff's caseloads are too high and they are overworked and totally underpaid. Seemed like 24/7 crisis management. Turnover rate is very high here.

The employees are pleasant and the goals of the organization are necessary for a fair society.

First Place for Youth is a clunky machine with poor follow up and little strategic approach to how it allocates its resources.
