Here is what to do:
- Walk in. Tell the first available employee that you are there because you need help.
- Let the employee know what the problem is (to whatever extent you are comfortable).
- The employee will find a comfortable place for you to wait while he/she calls the local youth shelter.
- The shelter will call the location back to let you know the name of the volunteer who will come to meet with you.
- Within minutes the volunteer (always the same sex as the youth) will arrive to talk with you and transport you to the shelter if you want counseling and a safe place to stay.
- Counselors will meet with you and try to work on a resolution to your problem.
- Family members will be contacted so they know you are OK and safe.
- The shelter and/or the counseling services are available for you while you work through a difficult time.

Safe Place provides a way for youth to run to help rather than run away from home. For more information about how to find a Safe Place, start a Safe Place program in your community, become a Safe Place volunteer or how you or your company can get involved with the program contact:
