Helping youth experiencing homelessness move toward wellness, stability and self-sufficiency.
My Friend’s Place offers comprehensive services to nearly
1,400 homeless youth between the ages of 12 and 25, and their children,
each year, out of our dynamic resource center in Hollywood.
We are so excited to announce the release of Volumes 14 and 15 of Popcorn, our youth zine featuring original writing and artwork by youth at My Friend's Place! Popcorn Zine is a monthly publication showcasing amazing creating writing and original visual arts made by youth at My Friend's Place during our daily creative workshops.
For many in our community, the COVID-19 health crisis has been devastating. For young people experiencing homelessness, the COVID-19 pandemic, compounded with the crisis of homelessness, creates an almost unthinkably challenging situation. Our young people’s need for essential care and support is greater now than ever before. We need your help to ensure that these young people can continue to count on My Friend’s Place for vital care, community and connection - especially now.
On average, My Friend’s Place serves 60-80 young people experiencing homelessness each day, and every young person is offered a new pair of socks and underwear on each visit. Help My Friend’s Place celebrate Socktober by contributing new socks and underwear, to ensure that we will have a steady supply for our youth in the coming months. Our goal is to collect 3,000 pairs this month and we need your help to make it happen!
