Description
NOT A SHELTER. Programs are staffed by outreach workers, working in conjunction with local school districts who spend time with at-risk/homeless youth, build relationships with them, identify and address their immediate needs (e.g., crisis intervention, food, clean clothing, hygiene kits, blankets, someone to listen) and provide information about and linkage to longer-term forms of support such as shelter, counseling, drug and alcohol detoxification and rehabilitation, care/case management. Youth in need do not have to be enrolled in school.
