However, for many teens in unhealthy dating relationships, Valentine’s Day can be a day filled with both mental and physical abuse.

Volunteers are the life blood of Robyne’s Nest, and this month we are celebrating our dedicated and wonderful food drive coordinator, Shawna Huerta.

Thanks to the generosity of our community, Robyne’s Nest was able to provide much needed resources and support to our students in the fourth quarter of 2023!

Couch surfing is defined as staying temporarily in a series of other people's homes, sleeping on sofas, in a spare room, or even on the floor. Millions of teens in the U.S. couch surf annually.

Finals week is often synonymous with stress and anxiety. For our at-risk and homeless teens, their extremely adverse living environments and stressors outside of school can significantly magnify this stress and anxiety.

Our Robyne’s Nest students come very from very unstable living situations, and have no concept of how to break their cycles and plan for better futures.

Robyne’s Nest extends a very special thank you to Kendra Scott and Model Citizen for their wonderful events benefiting Robyne’s Nest!

Our Robyne’s Landing Student Transitional House renovation and expansion project has come to fruition, and was dedicated last week!

Though statistics vary year to year, about one in ten young adults ages 18-25, and one in thirty youth ages 13-17 experience extended homelessness annually.

Along with supporting students who are abandoned, kicked-out or neglected by their parents, Robyne’s Nest also helps many students whose parents are simply unable to provide for them.

With the support of our incredible village we raised $112,387 to help fund our programs that provide our vulnerable local teens with the support and resources they need to focus on school, graduating, and becoming self-sufficient.

Robyne’s Nest is truly grateful to be awarded a generous grant from the Employees Community Fund of Boeing, with special thank you to Diane Tribolet.

Students in our Robyne’s Nest program do not come from nurturing homes that provide “normal” growing up experiences.

A milestone such as getting a driver’s license is an expectation for many teens, though for most of our students it is a dream that would be difficult, if not impossible without Robyne’s Nest.

Thank you to the many groups in the HB, FV and CM areas who helped assemble and deliver food bags to our local food insecure students for winter break.

Your donation to our 130K in 30 Days campaign will help provide safe, stable housing for students who are working to break their cycles and change their lives!

Thank you to ALL who made our Holiday Adopt-a-Student program a huge success, including bringing lots of joy to our Annual Student Holiday Party!

Our heartfelt gratitude goes out to everyone in our community who did drives or donated food, gift cards or funds to our Winter Break School Drive!

A huge THANK YOU to Beach Cities Toyota for their support and partnership with our Robyne’s Nest Winter Break Food Drive!
