They're a great, wonderful service for kids who aren't able to go to safe homes and for teens escaping abuse. They feed, shelter, clothe, and have rooms to let kids be kids, which is especially essential when they come from dangerous, toxic environments. The fact that it's very close to the other nearby shelters and near the Scranton High School is wonderful, and the location was a very intelligent decision! They do the most they can to help, and their rapid rehousing program is a wonderful installment into young people's lives who are unhoused! Overall, this shelter has a wonderful mission and ideal. They carry it out passionately and empathetically, no matter who comes in the door.

I visited this organization during a college course, and I was amazed to learn it is the only in the area. It is amazing what is being done, and I wish the best for more to become of it!
