Program Overview
United Indians’ Labateyah Youth Home provides a safe and nurturing environment for homeless youth, combining Native American wisdom and ceremony with modern health and social services, and has achieved exemplary results.
Labateyah’s Bridge Housing Program combines temporary crisis housing with rapid re-housing support services to move young adults aged 18-24 as quickly as possible to permanent rental housing. Case managers work with young adults to create a service plan and identify housing, all based on the young adult’s goals. Rental assistance can contribute to a variety of housing options, including roommates, shared housing with family or friends, or an independent apartment. Rental assistance is provided through a step-down approach, and may vary for every person in the program. Step-down rental assistance means that the rental subsidy decreases over time and the young adult is responsible for more of their rent, with the young adult being self-sufficient and fully responsible for the monthly rent by program exit. Case managers will also help connect with other benefits and community resources that may help contribute to independence from the Bridge Program.
Clients are provided with access to medical and educational services, case management, life skills training and career counseling to prepare them to successfully live and work on their own.
