S.T.R.E.E.T. is an acronym for our approach to helping homeless and at-risk teens. Our teens moved into a high risk Street Life over a period of time and rarely by their own choice. It takes time, resources, commitment and a personalized step by step approach to help them move off the streets.

Reunification with their families is always a goal, however, over 80% of our homeless teens were sexually and / or physically abused over a period of time before running away. These children do not have the option of returning to a "safe" home.
