Stand Up for Kids  

Stand Up for Kids supports unaccompanied youth ages 12-24 experiencing homelessness with counseling, mentoring, and housing. If you are in need of support, please call the Stand Up for Kids Hotline at 714-356-5437. You can visit their website at www.standupforkids.org to learn more.

The Everychild Foundation Emergency Shelter and Youth Program for homeless unaccompanied youth ages 10-17.

This program provides:

- Emergency shelter

Other assistance includes:

- Food & Clothing
- Individual and group counseling
- Medical services
- Legal help and long-term safety plans

After a participant graduates from the Youth Shelter, their goal is to make sure that the youth exit into safe, long-term housing, whether that is reunification with their parents or another appropriate arrangement. A six-month aftercare follow-up period is also in place so that staff can stay in touch to provide whatever support they might need to stay on track. 

If you or someone you know requires safe shelter, please call the 24-hour hotline numbers below to connect.
