Major Activities

Activity 2

The Crisis Center provides short-term sanctuary to youth and their children in a supervised, apartment living setting. During their 90-day stay, youth receive services that assist in stabilizing the crisis and enabling them to become self-supporting adults. Residents share a room and have access to laundry facilities, a computer lab, a recreation room and a playroom for children. Onsite staff work with youth to create and maintain an atmosphere of mutual respect, accountability, and interdependency to help make meaningful life changes. The Permanent and Supportive Housing Program (SHP) is a thirteen (13) unit scattered site apartment-based program which provides housing and support for seven families and six single homeless youth who have special needs. This open referral program is designed to provide services to homeless youth and their families who have a history that includes mental health issues, domestic violence, HIV/Aids, substance abuse and other documented special needs. The program is designed to connect the youth to community resources, to promote the youths self-sufficiency and reduce incidents of homelessness"

Activity 3

Rights of Passage: Rights of Passage (ROP) is a supportive, structured housing program for homeless youth ages 18 - 24 that assists them in transitioning from crisis and dependency to a level of stability and independence. Youth selected for this program must demonstrate a commitment to work on short- and long-term goals that will lead to self-sufficiency. ROP staff work with service managers to ensure that youth needs are met. The group living environment is based on the belief that every youth needs and should have support to become a productive, responsible adult.
