Homeless Youth Resource Center - Salt Lake City, UT - Safe Place Havens on Waymarking.com

A service of Volunteers of America-Utah, the Homeless Youth Resource Center, located at 655 South State Street in Salt Lake City, delivers a continuum of services to homeless street youth through three components.

Street Outreach
This unique approach to serving homeless youth provides basic needs and resources for the future. Street Outreach workers drive the streets, walk, bicycle and take public transit in Salt Lake County seeking out young people living on the streets. They provide food, clothing, information on community services and encourage kids to come to Volunteers of America's day time Drop-In Center.

Drop-In Center
At the Drop-In Center, homeless street youth can receive basic need items. Young women and men can take care of many of life’s daily activities like doing laundry and taking showers. Meals are served twice daily. Youth can attend classes, receive referrals for human services and participate in ongoing case management. The Center seeks to provide a safe trusting environment for homeless youth and help them begin the process of moving out of homelessness and onto the path of self-sufficiency. To assist youth with transitioning to independence even more the Drop-In Center is now offering housing case management services.

Transition Home
The Transition Home is an 18-month, all female program designed to provide support, guidance and structure to homeless youth. Through case management, goal setting and skill building groups and classes, this residential program seeks to help young women ages 16-19 transition from instability and homelessness to reunification with family and/or self-sufficiency.
