Micah’s House
“Many people are unaware of the number of young men living under private or public programs who are reaching adulthood without the necessary resources and skills needed for basic living.
Each of our participants will have a story as unique as the individual; however, there are characteristics they share:
They often have broken relationships and nonexistent healthy social supports.
They are either in a crisis situation or transitioning out of a foster home or group home and looking for an alternative to homelessness, i.e., in an emergency shelter, in transitional housing, sleeping on a friend’s couch, or exiting an institution where they temporarily resided.”
