Aftercare Program and Permanent Housing Assistance Program

The Aftercare Program offers continued support services to youth after they leave the shelter. This voluntary program can help the youth continue their goal plan that they started while they were shelter residents.

• Find safe, affordable housing in the community
• Pay part of the security deposit on an apartment that fits a budget

• Provide landlord/tenant mediation
• Ongoing case management
• Goal planning for the future
