A safe place for building the connection and support essential to healthy relationships and a successful future

The Crisis Residential Center offers safe, structured, and stable short-term housing and support for youth 12-17 for up to 15 days depending on your needs and risks.

If you:

  • Are in conflict with your family and want help finding a resolution
  • Would otherwise be homeless and need a safe place to sleep
  • Are under the guardianship of DCYF
  • Have run away from home
  • Are experiencing a risk to your health and safety
  • Want help identifying and working towards your goals

We can help you!

During your time with us, and depending on your needs and wants, we can connect you with emergency medical treatment, mental health services, sexual assault services and drug and alcohol assessments.  We also provide educational advocacy and a variety of other resources to enhance your ability to connect with ongoing community services.

If 15 days is not enough, voluntary placements of up to 60-days are available if you would otherwise be living outdoors or in other unsafe locations, are at-risk for exploitation or are currently being sexually exploited, and if you are participating in high-risk behaviors such as drug use, running away, and skipping school.
