Support our Hope for Youth’s Runaway and Homeless Youth Services Program (RHYS)

Hope For Youth’s Runaway and Homeless Youth Services Program (RHYS) provides Basic Center Programming, which is funded through the Family and Youth Services Bureau, a division of the US Administration for Children and Families and the Department of Health and Human Services.

These services have been added to our continuum of care in order to expand our reach. RHYS Staff provide services to youth 12-17 from engaging with them on the street and community settings through safety screenings and needs assessments and providing aftercare services. Transportation and continued care coordination post discharge from our RHYS programming are available. RHYS Staff provide intensive services through the Basic Center Programming for the initial 21 days a youth resides in our RHY Shelter Program. RHYS Staff maintain a trauma-informed milieu while providing essential services while supporting youth to achieve their goals.

When a young person is in need of a safe haven, we will provide:

Safe Shelter
