Lauren Auffant

Hi, I’m Lauren Auffant, a former resident of Youth Futures Shelter in Ogden, Utah. My time there was life-changing. It provided me with a sense of safety and support during one of the toughest periods of my life, especially while battling addiction. The caring staff offered me love, acceptance, and valuable resources that helped me rebuild. Now, at 24, I have my high school diploma, two children, and I'm employed full-time. I also serve on the Youth Advisory Board and the Board of Directors for Youth Futures, giving back to the community that supported me. I’m forever grateful for my experiences at Youth Futures.
