Youth Connections Drop-In Services - Connect Center, The

Drop-in center for homeless youth:

​- Housing Hub: Connects youth experiencing homelessness or at risk of being homeless with a Housing Specialist to provide housing problem solving. Housing Specialists can assist the youth with practical solutions, identify sources, alternatives, and mediate conflict resolution between friends or family. The initial access point to be connected with a Housing Specialist is short-term with a 30-day timeframe. After 30 days initial contact, households with no other pathways identified will be connected to a Housing Assessor and placed on the Housing Registry. - Staff help youth get help with employment and housing searches, connect to resources, and receive basic need items (clean clothes, food, sleeping bags, and toiletries)
