Safe Place provides the only runaway and homeless shelter program in Northern Alabama for youth not in state custody, 12-17 years old. The program works when a youth finds a Safe Place sign, placed out in the community at local business. The shelter sends a staff member or volunteer to pick the youth up and transport them to Ogden House shelter for services.

There staff provide counseling, reuniting with family and advocacy to youth who are abused, abandoned, runaway or homeless. Youth may stay up to 21 days. During that time the parents or DHR are notified and are involved in the counseling process. The goal is to reunite the families, if at all possible. When home is not a safe option then staff works to find the best option for that youth.

Key Benefits

  • Youth and families receive help free of charge.
  • Shelter services are confidential.
