URGENT Youth Homelessness is Rising. Yet Shelters are Closing.
As today's cost of living is forcing more youth onto the streets, the shelters they rely on are continuing to close. Help keep Covenant House as a place of safety, hope and opportunity for all who need us!
Covenant House doors are open all day and night, every day of the week.
More than 2,200 young people wake up in a Covenant House bed every day.
We provided more than 790,000 nights of safe housing to young people in the past year.
More Than 4 Million Young People Will Experience Homelessness This Year
Since 1972, we've opened our doors to more than 1.5 million young people experiencing homelessness and survivors of human trafficking. Every young person at Covenant House receives a warm bed, food, health and wellness services, a case manager, and, most important of all, unconditional love and absolute respect.
Shelter is Only the Beginning
Covenant House's doors are open 24/7 to all young people who need housing and help, regardless of their race, religion, sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression. From crisis to care: We help young people achieve stability and Independence.
"They provided me with immediate services and helped me to understand how to navigate my life. Before I was living in stress and fear."
"Some of the youth advisors really connect with you. They helped me with my mental health a lot."
"Even small steps towards your goal is a step in the right direction, and if you encounter a setback, remember it is only temporary."
How Serious Is Youth Homelessness?
As many as 4.2 million young people will experience a period of homelessness this year in the U.S. alone. The causes of homelessness are complex, and many of the most vulnerable young people in our communities face the greatest risk.
