Who we are: Covenant House Michigan (CHM) provides shelter and hope to young people ages 18-24 who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness. We have two locations in Michigan: Grand Rapids and Detroit. We provide youth shelter, educational and vocational programs, and support services to help them find their path to meaningful and successful adulthood. All our services are free.

Our shelter: CHM opened a new 28 bed shelter in Grand Rapids in 2018, and it is open all day, every day. Youth are welcome to stay with us from one day to three months. We meet youths’ immediate needs for food, a clean bed, a safe place to stay, medical and mental health services, and more, and we offer guidance and support to help them determine their own bright future. 

Our programs: Young people can access short-term emergency care in Grand Rapids through CHM’s emergency shelter.
