Room One

The Okanogan Healthy Youth (OHY) program addresses three major public health issues that disproportionately impact rural youth in Okanogan County: unintended teen pregnancy, inadequate reproductive healthcare access/information and dating violence. We address these issues through partnering directly with schools and other agencies in Okanogan County to reach as many young people as possible as well as their teachers, guardians and trusted service providers. OHY shares information and strengthens community connection by providing youth-centered groups, push-in classroom lessons, provider training and workshops. OHYs prevention model focuses on building leadership skills, creating access to comprehensive sexual health information and teaching about healthy relationships.

Fiscal Sponsorship: Room One agrees to fiscal sponsorships when there is mission alignment between Room One and the entity that is asking to operate under Room Ones tax exempt status. Other factors that Room One considers when approached about fiscal sponsorship include what administrative needs the entity requires and if Room One has the capacity to fill those administrative needs.
