Sasha Bruce Youthwork, formerly known as the Washington Streetwork Project, was founded in 1974 by Deborah Shore to provide counseling and support to homeless youth and runaways in Washington, DC. In 1977, the organization opened the Sasha Bruce House, a 24-hour homeless youth shelter, with funds donated by Evangeline Bruce in memory of her daughter Sasha.
Today, Sasha Bruce Youthwork is one of the largest and most experienced providers of services to youth in the city. Their mission is to help young people find safe homes, improve their physical and mental health, build supportive families, and explore educational and career opportunities.
