Drop In and Overnight Shelter offered by Friends of Youth at Willows Youth Services Center

Drop In and overnight shelter services operate 24 hours a day, providing a safe and supportive environment for clients. During the day, individuals have access to meals, hygiene and laundry facilities, and dedicated case management. They can also connect with mental health and healthcare providers and access education and employment support services. In addition to these essential resources, we offer emotional and social support through peer-led therapeutic activities. Clients engage in various self-care and skill-building activities, including video games as a form of relaxation, creative arts for self-expression, and life skills training such as cooking, financial literacy, and shared responsibilities like maintaining the shelter space. At night, each client is provided with a private sleeping area, complete with a bed, lamp, and secure storage for their personal belongings, ensuring they have a safe and comfortable space to rest.
