Community Connections Youth Project (CCYP)

The Community Connections Youth Project (CCYP) in Oak Grove, MO, is dedicated to empowering older foster youth as they transition to adulthood by providing crucial navigational assistance and comprehensive support. Our mission is to ensure that these young individuals have access to resources that help overcome the unique challenges they face, from securing employment and educational opportunities to obtaining essential services like food assistance through our food pantry and clothing through our clothing closet. We offer personalized guidance in navigating legal issues, securing housing through HUD application assistance, and connecting with physical and mental health professionals. At CCYP, we are committed to walking alongside each young person, helping them build a brighter future filled with hope and stability.
