YEAH! (Youth Emergency Assistance Hostel) is in its fifth year of serving as Berkeley's only shelter for youth ages 18-25 who are living on the streets. Instead of sleeping in dumpsters and under tarps in the rainy season (and getting sick and hopeless) young people who are homeless come here and find a safe, warm place to sleep, home cooked dinners and breakfasts, counseling and referrals. Here they can find a chance to begin to turn their lives around. This year YEAH! is open from November 20th through April 8th.
More opportunities with Youth Engagement Advocacy Housing (YEAH!)
No additional volunteer opportunities at this time.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to support young adults (18-24) in Berkeley who are currently homeless. We provide basic necessities, offer case management and counseling, linkages to education, employment and housing, and opportunities for meaningful community involvement.
Description
YEAH! is one of Berkeley’s only shelters for transitional age youth (18-24). We assist young people who are currently homeless by providing basic relief from the stress of living on the street. We are also dedicated to co-creating a community of mutual support--a community where youth can identify personal goals and explore alternatives to life on the street.
