Southside expanding services, YSB needs new location

Southside Community Center is planning to expand the range of services offered to the local homeless population, but that expansion doesn’t come without a bit of heartache, as the changes will necessitate the Youth Services Bureau to move locations.

For 20 years, the Youth Service Bureau has called South Guadalupe Street home, alongside the Southside Community Center, which is a separate nonprofit that provides temporary housing, food and related services to those in need of assistance in the community.

Dedicated to empowering and promoting the healthy development of San Marcos’ youth, YSB has been in operation since 1975, offering afterschool and summer programs to young people ages 11-17.
