Together offers short-term, walk-in emergency housing for youth age 9-18 in need of a safe place to live. Together provides 24/7 safe housing and basic needs support for youth who have experienced abuse, neglect, human trafficking or those youth who have run away or are in need of safe housing due to a variety of circumstances.

Together is a caring and healing home for children where they receive support and work on their future with the goal of family reunification. When returning home is not the safest choice, Together counselors seek alternative, stable living arrangements. Center For Family Services Safe and Supportive Housing programs provide a continuum of care for youth in need of a long-term safe place to live.

Together provides:

  • food, clothing, and medical services
  • individual, group, parent, and family counseling
  • advocacy
  • life skills training
  • educational and tutoring services
  • drug and alcohol screenings
  • recreational activities
  • serving all genders

Skilled counselors help children establish goals and support them as they return to a more stable home environment.

Together emergency shelter is an LGBTQIA+ affirming home.
