Volunteer host homes provide 24-hour supervision and shelter to teens up to 19 years old who have left home. In the event a family home is unavailable or inappropriate, the program also offers spaces at a local group home in Charlottesville. If you are interested in opening your home to a youth in need, contact contact Melissa Savin at 434-296-4118, ext. 234, or e-mail her. Volunteer host home providers receive training, ongoing support and a stipend while housing youth.
