​Journey House
​Transitional Living Program

is a supervised independent living program that offers support and guidance to young men ages 18-24 who are transitioning from foster care or other out-of-home placements to living independently on their own. The program provides resources and assistance to help these young adults learn the necessary life skills to become self-sufficient, including budgeting, job skills, and household management. The youth receive ongoing support from trained case managers who help them connect with community resources, establish goals and plans, and monitor their progress. The program aims to empower the youth by helping them develop the skills and confidence to navigate the challenges of independent living, build stable and positive relationships, and live healthy and productive lives.

In order to be considered for this program, young men or their advocates must apply online or in person. As of November 1, 2023, this program is now available.
