Grant Description | |
---|---|
Description | With the majority of Los Angeles treatment centers charging from $10,000 to $80,000 per month for recovery services, America's throw away children have almost no hope for survival. Your grant will provide our kids with a change for a future. |
Used for | Provide youth ages 17-24 with safe housing, recovery services and education. The Freehab facility has 50 beds dedicated to youth. There are almost 4,000 youth living on the streets of Los Angeles without hope for a future. |
Benefits | Our kids have a short window of opportunity prior to becoming habitually homeless. Studies have shown that the majority of people surviving great adversity will dedicate their lives to helping others once recovered. Youth ages 17-24 are less than 2% of our total population, yet 100% of our future. |
