Outpatient Mental Health Program
The A Village for One (AV41) Outpatient Mental Health Program (OMHP) was created for youth ages 12 to 25 who are at risk for or have been commercially sexually exploited or sex trafficked. Both during their exploitation and prior to it, many youth have experienced multiple environmental, social, and physical insults. This may include sexual abuse, parental neglect and/or abuse, alcohol/drug dependence or abuse, school failure, and high levels of emotional vulnerability. It is the intent of AV41 and the OMHP to serve this vulnerable population by providing community-based mental health counseling and case management services. Services are currently available to youth in Clackamas County, Marion County, and Oak Creek Youth Correctional Facility in the state of Oregon. AV41 has offices in Oregon City and Salem, OR. AV41 collaborates with treatment teams, families, community partners, and other service providers to assist in meeting the needs of our clients.
Therapeutic Housing Program
The A Village For One (AV41) Therapeutic Housing Program (THP) was created for youth who are identified as Commercially Sexual Exploited Children (CSEC). Both during their exploitation and prior to it, many youth have experienced multiple environmental, social, and physical insults. This may include sexual abuse, parental neglect and/or abuse, alcohol/drug dependence or abuse, school failure, and high levels of emotional vulnerability. It is the intent of AV41 and the THP to serve the most vulnerable youth in the CSEC population by providing a safe and healthy living environment in which they can experience support, growth, and empowerment.

Financial data
A Village for One
Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
