15th Annual AYR-EYFS
Golf Tournament

The 15th Annual AYR-EYFS Golf Tournament was a fun-filled day at Washington National Golf Course that helped to ensure that no child or family would be turned away from our doors due to a lack of ability to pay for services. Auburn Youth Resources and Enumclaw Youth & Family Services would like to thank all of the players and sponsors of this year’s event for their continued support. In addition we would like to thank this year’s Tournament Co-Chairs, Charles Poe & Gary Venn.

About Us

Auburn Youth Resources (AYR) and Enumclaw Youth & Family Services are private, non-profit child and family agencies serving South King County and North Pierce Counties since 1973.  Our mission is to assist families and youth by providing counseling, prevention, and support services with the goal of helping them to become healthy, loving, and self-directed individuals. AYR and EYFS operate three major community-based programs providing counseling, homeless outreach and housing support services, children’s residential services, a youth drop-in center and adolescent substance abuse prevention and treatment services.

Our Philosophy

It is our belief that every child should be given the opportunity to grow and progress to the fullest of their potential. All of the many programs and services delivered by AYR & EYFS are based on a multi-systemic approach that acknowledges that individuals are inextricably parts of systems and the health and well-being of an individual is tied to and ultimately affected by the health and well-being of the entire system. In utilizing this approach, we often work not only with children and families but also with neighborhoods, schools, communities, other social service agencies and other significant people in the youth and family’s life. Our services are focused on building upon the strengths, assets and competencies of the families we serve.

Who We Serve

Since our inception as an agency in 1973, we have focused on providing services for the low-income and underprivileged children, youth and families of South King & North Pierce Counties. We believe that this population is all too frequently the forgotten members of society that must endure life events within the crippling context of poverty and despair. AYR & EYFS are committed to providing excellence in service and through your continued support pledge that no child or family is ever turned away due to a lack of ability to pay for services. Our services are family-focused and we recognize and honor the wisdom and competencies of the families we serve. At AYR & EYFS we view the family as the fabric of life. It is the foundation of who we are and how we view the world. It is through this unique bond that we learn to become individuals, couples, neighbors and community members. Our families teach us how to interrelate. That is why they are so very vital.

What We Accomplish

Each year AYR & EYFS serve over 12,000 South King & North Pierce County residents. Our services are broad & reflect the diversity of the populations we serve. All of our programs & services utilize the latest evidence based practices & are delivered by our professional and dedicated team.
