Every young person’s experience and life journey is unique. Many young people tell us that walking in to a shelter – any shelter – was the most difficult decision of their lives. We are honored when young people put their trust in us. We listen, and work in partnership with them to pursue their goals and dreams.
It all starts with an open door, a welcome, and providing a place of safety, hope, and love. Our young people have amazing gifts, and when we build a bond of trust together, there is nothing they cannot achieve.
We provide educational programs, job training and placement, medical services, mental health and substance abuse counseling, legal aid and so much more. Every program is designed to meet our young people where they are in their lives and embrace their great promise.
Being present.
This is what street outreach means, and this is what our outreach teams provide day after day, night after night. We let young people experiencing homelessness know that they are not alone, that help is available, and that we will be there for them whenever they are ready to take that next step.
Our Welcome/Intake Centers are designed to be relaxing and hopeful. We always have someone at our front door, 24/7. And it’s here we ask the basic, important questions… Are you hungry? Do you need a shower? Do you want to wash your clothes? Do you need to see a doctor? How can we help you?
