OYFP Partner Profile: Bay Area Community Resources

The mission of Bay Area Community Resources (BACR) is to promote the healthy development of individuals, families and communities. There are three core components to their mission:

  • Provide direct services to promote healthy development
  • Encourage volunteers to provide service to their community
  • Build and strengthen all of the communities they serve, so that community members and institutions can affect change.

  • Alcohol and Drug
