Every Sunday, our dedicated volunteers lead a Sunday service at CYC, offering a space of spiritual growth, encouragement, and hope to the young individuals residing there.

The CYC Outreach Ministry is a vital part of our mission to serve the youth at the Caliente Youth Center (CYC), a level 2 medium-security facility in Caliente, Lincoln County, Nevada.

Our CYC Outreach ministry is driven by Straight Ahead Ministries, which focuses on reaching young people in correctional facilities with the transformative power of the gospel. Through our weekly services, we aim to bring light into places of darkness, offering these youth not just a message of redemption, but a tangible reminder of their worth and potential in Christ.

Straight Ahead is a faith-based organization offering a community of care for justice-involved youth.

The impact of this ministry extends beyond the youth it serves. Our volunteers experience profound personal growth as they witness God’s grace in action. By building relationships, sharing God’s love, and walking alongside the youth, they become an integral part of a powerful journey of restoration and transformation. The lives of both the CYC youth and our volunteers are deeply changed as they see firsthand how faith, service, and community can make a lasting difference.
