256 youth engaged in support services in 2023.
Urban Peak’s Support Services help youth experiencing homelessness increase their independence, build positive relationships, make progress to achieve academically and develop employment and career skills. This can mean obtaining a GED, re-enrolling or completing coursework needed to graduate from high school or applying for post-secondary educational opportunities. Job Readiness Training builds hard and soft skills such as cover letter and resume development, job search and interview practice, job retention training and time and money management. These critical services support youth as they work to become self-sufficient and maintain safe and stable housing.
