Youth Development - Roanoke, Family Service of Roanoke Valley

FSRV's Youth Development program provides year-round prevention services to underserved children and youth through partnerships with local schools and community organizations. Youth Development Specialists implement evidence-based curricula, including Love Notes® and the Teen Outreach Program® (TOP®) for middle and high school students, while elementary-aged participants receive age-appropriate programming that promotes healthy relationships, positive decision-making, and resilience. Through consistent engagement with trusted adults, the program strengthens protective factors, delays the onset of high-risk behaviors, and equips youth with the skills needed for a healthy and successful transition into adulthood.
