Going Places

 
Going Places offers services and resources to remove youth from the street and put them on the road to self-sufficiency. If you’re a youth who’s facing a difficult journey, we can help move you in a safe, positive direction. If you are not able to enter a shelter or return home, we will create a customized plan to help you survive on the streets. If you’re a provider and need additional resources to assist a youth in need, Going Places Outreach can help.
