New Video: Erin Pankey

NCFY's new video series features seven youth workers from around the country, each sharing a time when they made a big difference in a young person's life.

Erin Pankey remembers a longtime couch-surfer who entered her program, beginning a recovery process that eventually took her to school and her own financial independence.

The "When Did You Make the Biggest Difference in a Young Person's Life?" video series was shot in Portland, OR, during the 2011 National Runaway and Homeless Youth Family and Youth Services Bureau Grantee Conference in November. A complementary series titled "What's Your Most Meaningful Relationship?" features formerly homeless and foster young people talking about the most essential people in their lives.
