Stand Up For Kids is a nonprofit organization that works to help homeless youth. It operates in 16 states with over 25 locations, providing temporary shelter and other services to help young people get back on their feet. The organization is looking to rebrand in order to reach more homeless youth, increase community awareness, and reevaluate its mission and vision. Direct competitors include organizations that provide services to homeless youth, though they differ in areas like location, services offered, and target populations.
