Homeless youth drop in center

Throughout the city there are eight youth drop-in centers. They serve homeless youth from 18 to 24 years old providing hot meals, showers, clean clothes and referrals to other programs and before the mandate, they were a safe place to close your eyes, maybe take a nap. But now, the city says that homeless youth aren’t allowed to sleep in the drop-in centers. Jamie Powlvich, the Executive Director of Coalition for HomelessYouth says the new mandate is already creating problems.
