Hosea Youth Services brings together civic and faith based ministries committed to serving young people particularly the homeless and disenfranchised. Hosea Youth Services provides food, laundry, showers, clothing, and shelter. Referral and casework assistance includes finding work, housing, educational and medical resources.
 
At Hosea we serve over 8,000 meals a year, provide 1,500 nights of shelter care and provide hundreds of street kids a place to shower, do laundry, obtain clothes, bus tokens, referral and just rest... in a safe place! While there are success stories around jobs, housing, medical care and education we like to think every meal served and every night of hospitality is a success if done motivated by love and with joy. All of this is possible because of the generosity and time of volunteers and donors who actively contribute to make this possible.

"I lead them with cords of human kindness, with ties of love I lifted the yoke from their neck and bent down to feed them." - Hosea 11:4

We rely on volunteers for almost everything we do. Generally about 200 volunteers give about 2,000 hours a year to maintain the services provided. If you would like to get involved you can complete our online volunteer form.  Your may also contact our drop-in center for a "Volunteer Application" form.

We not only rely on the hard work and dedication of volunteers to provide the bulk of our services, but truly need your financial contribution.  Donations can be made here through our website, postal mail or at our drop-in locations.
