Mission Statement
Mission: Providing pathways to end youth homelessness. Vision: All youth will feel safe, valued and supported while reaching their full potential. This begins with meeting their basic needs and leads to giving them the tools to thrive.
Description
On any given night in Minnesota, 6,000 young people are without a home. They’re sleeping in cars, couch-hopping or struggling to survive on the streets. HOPE 4 Youth is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization in Anoka County that helps young people, ages 16 to 24, who are experiencing homelessness in the northern Twin Cities metro area.
In March 2013, HOPE 4 Youth opened its doors, becoming the first and only Drop-In Center for homeless youth ages 23 and under in the north metro area.
In December 2016, HOPE 4 Youth opened HOPE Place, a 12-unit supportive transitional housing program for youth ages 18-24, located in Coon Rapids.
