YouthLink’s Drop-In Center–also known as Project Offstreets–is a safe place youth can visit when there’s no where else to turn. It’s a one-stop shop of sorts for homeless youth that offers basic health care needs, long-term housing referrals and help finding a job–all under one roof.

More specifically, during a visit to the Drop-In Center, young people  have access to:

• Help obtaining a social security card, state ID’s, birth certificates, etc.
• Shower, access laundry facilities
• Personal hygiene products and clean clothes
• Safe and secure lockers
• Sound and trusted legal advice
• Reliable on-site medical clinic services
• A caring, trusting adult to talk to

The Drop-In Center is a place for young people to call home as they move past their immediate survival needs and realize their full, individual potential. That said, reuniting youth with their families is also an important part of our jobs.

The Drop-In Center is 0pen Monday through Friday from 3:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m. and is closed Saturday and Sunday. If you or a young person you know can’t make it during those hours, please contact a case manager and arrange an individual appointment.
