Why we’re here.

Palette Function Room was created to fill a hole in the community that the team at Centerboard wanted to fill. Designed to bring the community together in a space created by us, for us.

Who is Centerboard?

We Support Youth with Group Homes

Residences for youth aim to teach individuals new skills to navigate the world while managing their trauma. These group homes are designed to feel like a safe home.

We Support Survivors through We Rise

We Rise brings together survivors of commercial sexual exploitation in order to prevent, intervene against, and promote recovery from the commercial sexual exploitation of children.
