Mission Statement
ROOTS Young Adult Shelter builds community and fosters dignity through access to essential services and a safe place to sleep for young adults experiencing homelessness.
About This Cause
The ROOTS Young Adult Shelter opened in 1999 as a shelter specifically for young people between 18 and 25. ROOTS has been helping young people have a safe place to sleep for over 20 years. ROOTS provides emergency shelter, nutritious food, and supportive services. We have 45-beds, hot meals, and hygiene facilities seven nights, every day of the year. In addition, the shelter offers case management services; coaching shelter guests in accessing health care, housing, employment, addiction counseling, and opportunities for continuing education. Each year ROOTS provides over 15,200 bed nights, serving nearly 500 unduplicated young guests. Over half of our guests are of color, and 25% identify as female, 6% are transgender.
