The
Transitional Living Program helps homeless teens learn how to live safely
and successfully in the community. Youth are assigned a Community
Support Provider, Independent Living Mentor, and Counselor who assist
youth to reach their goals. The Transitional Living Team teaches
independent living skills while providing mental health support and
secure living arrangements.
This free
program is available for teens, minimum age 16 1/2 years old, who are
homeless and experiencing mental health issues. Trained professionals teach
young people what it takes to be able to live independently and become
self-reliant. We strive to prepare youth in accomplishing this goal
within 18 months of entering the program.
There are
some expectations to living in the Transitional Living Program, such as
meeting with a Counselor, going to
school, or having a job.
Guardian consent is necessary for
participation with the program. As with all of the programs of Huckleberry House,
Inc., our services are confidential. This means that we don't
share what we're told unless someone's immediate safety is at risk.
For more information or to refer yourself or someone you care about to
the Transitional Living Program, please call (614) 294-8097 — please relay
detailed information and we will do our best to help. |
