🏠 The Sanctuary Has Reopened
After a period of closure, The Sanctuary — our 24-hour, 365-day crisis shelter for runaway and homeless youth ages 12–17 — is officially back open and welcoming young people in Westchester and Rockland Counties.
The Sanctuary offers:
• Immediate shelter and safety for youth ages 12–17
• Referrals from youth, parents, families, and community providers
• Connections to community resources
• Transportation support to help youth access the program
• An alternative to hospitalization, out-of-home placement, or juvenile justice involvement
• Collaborative work with families and community partners toward safety and stability
Know a young person who needs support — or a partner organization who should know about us? Share this post and help us spread the word. Sometimes just knowing a safe place exists can change everything. Reach out to connect with our team.🤝
