Non-Residential Youth Services

Supporting youth where they are — while they stay enrolled and on track.

Chasing Hope House Non-Residential Youth Services provide structured, supportive programming for youth who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness and need guidance, resources, and stability while remaining in school. This program serves youth 19 and under who are working toward independence but do not require residential placement.

Educational & School-Based Support

We help youth stay enrolled, engaged, and progressing toward graduation or completion.

Supports include:

  • Academic check-ins and goal setting

  • Attendance and credit recovery support

  • Graduation, GED, or alternative education planning

  • Coordination with schools, counselors, and community partners

Participation in this program requires active school enrollment.

Life Skills & Independent Living Preparation

Youth receive practical skills that build confidence, stability, and readiness for adulthood.

Focus areas include:

  • Financial literacy and budgeting basics

  • Job readiness and career exploration

  • Time management, organization, and self-advocacy

  • Healthy decision-making and personal responsibility

These skills are designed to support youth in their current living situation while preparing for future independence.

Case Management, Mentorship & Supportive Services

Each youth receives individualized support based on their unique needs and goals.

Services may include:

  • One-on-one case management and mentoring

  • Referrals to housing, food, transportation, childcare, and community resources

  • Support navigating systems and next steps

  • Encouragement, accountability, and trusted adult connections

For youth under 18, participation requires emancipation or written guardian permission.

Please note: This program does not provide housing. Services are supportive, voluntary, and contingent on continued school enrollment.
