YoungPlace

YoungPlace is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing resources and support for young people experiencing homelessness. Founded in 2015, the organization aims to offer a safe haven and pathways to independence for individuals aged 16 to 24. Their services include emergency shelter, transitional housing, life skills training, and access to educational and employment opportunities.

The core mission of YoungPlace is to empower vulnerable youth by addressing their immediate needs for shelter and safety while simultaneously equipping them with the tools necessary for long-term stability. They believe in a holistic approach that considers the physical, emotional, and social well-being of each young person they serve.

YoungPlace operates through a combination of residential programs and outreach services. The residential programs provide a structured living environment where young people can receive ongoing support. Outreach teams work to connect with youth on the streets, offering immediate assistance and information about available services. The organization relies on donations, grants, and volunteer support to fund its operations and expand its reach within the community. Their work focuses on fostering resilience and helping young individuals build brighter futures.
