Mission

Covenant House builds a bridge to hope for young people facing homelessness, including survivors of human trafficking and young families. Ending youth homelessness as we know it is our North Star, and to that end, we support young people along three pathways: prevention, intervention, and restoration. Covenant House's doors are open 24/7 to all young people who need housing and help, regardless of their race, religion, citizenship, sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression. This is the essence of our open intake policy. We operate in 34 cities across five countries: the United States, Canada, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico. Our services and programs are available at no cost and no one is ever turned away without support of some kind. All young people are welcome at Covenant House, and we are steadfast in our commitment to provide them a sense of belonging.
