GOOD SHEPHERD SERVICES

The Chelsea Foyer at The Christopher

The Foyer gives youth who participate in the program a vital opportunity to break the cycle of poverty, crime, and homelessness.  It is our goal that each young person who comes through our door will leave us a successful, self-sufficient young adult who can serve as a role model to others.

Seeing Success

AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUTURE

We know that all young people have what it takes to succeed.  At the Chelsea Foyer, each time we accept a new resident into the program, we are making an investment – not just in that young person, but in a stronger community and a better future.  The young people who have completed the program have proven that we have invested wisely. 

 

 Of the alumni who have reported back to us:

 

93% are completely self-sufficient
93% are living in stable housing
88% are employed at least part-time
72% have health insurance
93% earned a high school diploma or GED
45% are pursuing higher education or vocational training

 

Data as of 4/2/08

"By giving these young people the supportive environment they need to develop life skills, job skills and maturity, we can help them move up to the next level and lead successful, independent lives, breaking the cycle that so often leads to homelessness."
