OUR SERVICES

Christopher Youth shelter and crisis center

Youth Shelter & Crisis Center

The Basic Center Program is a youth center that provides emergency housing, food, clothing, counseling, tutoring, transportation to school, and other appropriate referrals for males and females ages 11-17 years old.

Christopher Youth safe places

Safe Place

Youth can access help at a safe place site by simply going to the site and letting the person on duty know that they need help. Christopher Youth Center staff or volunteers will be contacted and someone will meet the youth at the safe place site to assess the situation and determine the best options to help.

Christopher Youth connections

Connections

Connections is a coordinated entry system to connect all youth to community services and housing resources, including homeless prevention services.
