On any given night in Minnesota, 6,000 young people are without a home. They’re sleeping in cars, couch-hopping or struggling to survive on the streets. HOPE 4 Youth is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization in Anoka County that helps young people, ages 16 to 24, who are experiencing homelessness in the northern Twin Cities metro area.
In March 2013, HOPE 4 Youth opened its doors, becoming the first and only Drop-In Center for homeless youth ages 23 and under in the north metro area.
In December 2016, HOPE 4 Youth opened HOPE Place, a 12-unit supportive transitional housing program for youth ages 18-24, located in Coon Rapids.
