A Brief History of Gunnison Country Partners
|
|
|
Gunnison Country Partners is a youth mentoring organization founded in 1990 by a group of citizens who believed that caring adults can make a positive and tangible difference in the lives of youth. Since its inception, Partners has continually expanded its role as the only youth organization of its type in the Gunnison-Hinsdale area to serve an increasingly diverse population of youth with a variety of positive, alcohol-and-drug-free programs and services.
The hallmark of Partners' growth has been its dedication to working in a collaborative and cooperative way with community organizations |
and agencies whose missions include serving youth and their families. Since opening its doors in 1990, Partners has provided directly, or financially supported, services to over 1600 Gunnison Country youth.
