The Link provides housing and critical support services to youth experiencing homelessness, sexual exploitation, and involvement in the juvenile justice system. Each year, we serve around 2,000 youth and young families through our 3 divisions: Housing and Homeless Services, Safe Harbor, and Youth Advocacy.
I am proud to work as a housing case manager within the Housing and Homeless Services division. Our team offers a continuum of services to youth experiencing homelessness including street outreach, two emergency shelters, supportive housing programs and a prevention program. Alongside housing, we also partner with young people to heal from trauma, achieve sobriety, reengage with their education, find jobs they love, build healthy relationships, and so much more.
Check out some 2021 stats:
242 youth and families exited homelessness into stable housing
39 youth AVOIDED homelessness through our culturally specific Northside Prevention Program for Black youth
22 LGBTQ+ youth exited homelessness through Project Live Out Loud, our culturally specific housing program
37 minor youth provided with safe shelter at Dignity House
532 youth visits to CORE Drop-In Center for basic needs support
Your donations to The Link on Give to the Max Day help ensure youth across all our programs can access the resources they need and the opportunities they deserve.
