Providing a safe haven for homeless and at-risk teens and young adults.

Epworth Drop-In Center is a multi-purpose, safe space where youth ages 11 through 20 can come to relax, have fun, receive critical services, and have their most basic needs met. Equipped with a recreation room, computer lab, and full-service kitchen as well as laundry, shower, and clothes/food pantry, Epworth Drop-In Center has it all for youth in a variety of situations. Hot meals are prepared daily; case management services to help with housing, education, employment, and legal issues are readily available; and free clinical care is offered through a partnership with iFM Community Medicine, including health screens and HIV/STI testing. Additionally, educational classes are held frequently focusing on topics such as resourceful and nutritional cooking, safer sex practices, employment workshops, and much more.

The Epworth Drop-In Center team is available to guide homeless teens during times of crisis.
