From talking with people in the community and exploring Spanish Lake, we’ve learned that:
- Spanish Lake is one of the most unique places in St. Louis County, with both a city-like feel and lots of beautiful nature to enjoy
- Spanish Lakers have a lot of pride in their community; and
- Residents wish there were more resources for youth
The last part caught our attention.
At Youth In Need, we believe that when young people have the resources to succeed, lives change. Youth In Need works to build bright and positive futures for youth and families by providing resources like counseling services, early learning support and crisis intervention.
We are spending some time thinking about how we could serve the youth in Spanish Lake, and we’d like to know—what do you think the young people in Spanish Lake need in order to build a bright future?
