Street Youth Ministry of Austin exists to know, love and serve street-dependent youth. The first step of our mission is to notice street youth. Then we must understand their culture to know how to love and serve them. SYM spends time every day with more than 100 young adults. We provide basic services, counseling, referral to services, and Christian guidance counseling. It it a privilege to know these young people.

Worth It All!
A street-dependent client ran up to me recently on the street. He's made himself unwelcome pretty much everywhere, but SYM continues to serve him because he's reaching that special age between 24 and 28 where he might turn his life around. He ran up to me with a gleam in his eye I've never seen in the three years of working with him. He said, "Terry, last night I reached the end. I gave all the bad stuff in my life over to Jesus." He's been difficult and hard to handle, but it's all been worth it!
