The mission of the Huckleberry Fund is to raise funds to support youth programs of the Division of Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles. Guided by our mission, we pursue the following goals:

• To address the health needs of at risk and high risk youth, including but not limited to, homeless and runaway youth, youth at risk for gang violence, pregnant teens and teen parents, youth at risk for sexually transmitted infections including HIV, and youth at risk for mental health and substance abuse disorders.
  

• To promote services for traditionally underserved youth populations, including low-income youth and youth of color.
