Our Mission
The goal of the Transitions Emergency Shelter is to provide emergency housing for the transitional age youth population where they can feel safe and protected from not only the elements of the environment, free from safety risks.
The goal of the Transitions Homeless program is to provide members of the transitional age youth population a safe environment where they can safely learn independent living skills and skills to make them more employable, empowering them to be more self-sustaining upon their completion of the program.
Our Transitional Program
Our 18-month transitional program provides a safe environment for participants to focus on learning independent living skills and skills to be employed.
Participants will be transitioned from the shelter into the transitional program via case management referral. House assignments will be according to age range. Room assignments are according to gender and availability.
Participants will eventually transition into their own residence upon successful completion of the program.
