Transitional Living Program

The Transitional Living Program (TLP) provides services for runaway, throwaway and homeless youth ages 16-21.  With the help of a case manager, program participants will develop an individualized plan to ensure safe and stable living arrangements through an assessment of needs, life skills training and counseling to begin to make positive life changes.  This program helps youth strengthen relationships and expand natural support systems.  TLP is a goal driven program that encourages youth to identify and overcome barriers that lead to self-sufficiency.

*Scattered site apartment support available to eligible 18-21 year olds.
