SAFE Haven Youth Shelter

Melissa Robinson, Shelter Programs Coordinator
262.632.0424

A runaway teen makes an easy target for fraud, robbery, or exploitation. Many become involved with drugs, pornography, survival sex, or teen prostitution.

In a small number of cases, some have been abducted or murdered. Those who do manage to survive on the streets are at risk for sexually transmitted diseases, pregnancy, alcohol or other drug abuse and suicide.

The Youth Shelter program provides food, clothing, shelter, and case management services to runaway, homeless and abused youth age ten through seventeen.

Program Goals
