People’s City Mission – Safe Place

How It Works: Find a Safe Place Site(Designated with a yellow ‘Safe Place’ sign), and ask for help (See right for a general list –OR– Text SAFE to 69866.). The Safe Place advocate will come and meet with you and, if necessary, provide transportation to the People’s City Mission for temporary shelter until the best course of action can be determined and put into place. Most of the time they will make sure you get home. If home is not a safe place, they will house you temporarily and arrange with local services specifically for youth. Through the Safe Place program, young people have a chance to work through their problems with the support of caring people who offer supportive services to both them and their families.
