We are in need of host homes!

Youth Attention Center is looking for suitable host homes to help homeless youth through the Transitional Living Program. The host homes provide support to youth aged 17 and older* who are unaccompanied, which implies that they are not living with a parent or guardian. One of the most important goals of the Transitional Living Program is to provide safe, stable, and supportive homes for homeless youth.
