Volunteers of America Spokane - Crosswalk Youth Shelter - Spokane, WA

Description: Emergency Shelter Teens only.
Crosswalk restores hope and encourages personal responsibility among homeless youth, including those who eventually return to their families, by providing:
* family reconciliation services
* clothing, showers and personal hygiene products
* employment-readiness program and job-placement assistance
* independent living training including life-skills and self-sufficiency classes
* attachment and bonding classes for young mother and fathers
* onsite Head Start program
* medical and mental-health care
* school drop-out prevention program
* substance-abuse treatment and prevention
* tutoring and enrichment activities * college scholarship opportunities (donor funded)
* transportation
* access to our transitional housing programs

Run by a small professional staff, Crosswalk relies heavily on the generosity of churches, service clubs, families and businesses who provide daily meals as well as community volunteers who provide tutoring and enrichment activities and donors who provide financial support, in-kind services and scholarship funds.
