YNPNkc All-Access Tour at Synergy Services
Join the Young Nonprofit Professionals Network of Kansas City (YNPNkc) for a behind the scenes tour of Synergy Services.
Synergy Services is a local organization that strengthens the individual, family and community through crisis intervention, shelter, counseling, advocacy and education.
We will take a tour of the Children's Center, an emergency placement shelter which provides a safe, therapeutic environment for children from birth to age 17. Children come to stay at the program from the state's custody, or through Crisis Care which may include but is not limited to homelessness, domestic violence, incarceration, or unexpected hospitalization of a guardian.
Opened in 2016, the 10,000 square foot Children's Center has doubled Synergy's capacity to serve children by providing space for advocacy services, mentoring, educational services, tutoring and play therapies. The center was actually created in a renovated 100-year-old farmhouse donated to the organization, and can house up to 16 children at any given time.
After the tour, enjoy networking with other young professionals in the Synergy space.
