In continuous operation since 1972, Youth Haven is Southwest Florida’s only residential and emergency shelter for boys and girls ages 6-18 who have been removed from their homes due to abuse, neglect or abandonment. Youth Haven envisions a day when every child in Southwest Florida will grow up in a safe and nurturing family environment. A 25-acre therapeutic campus offers around-the-clock specialized care for children and teens. Services include: nutritious meals, clothing, educational support, medical care, dental care, mental health care, therapy and counseling, and more; all in a homelike environment. Youth Haven provides three main comprehensive programs: The Emergency & Residential Shelter (Cottages); the Homeless Teen & Transitional Living Program (HTTLP); and the Counseling Center. The Cottages provide a home, instill hope and create a safe place to help children in the child welfare system begin to heal. The HTTLP is the only program in Collier County for teens experiencing homelessness and in need of assistance in their transition to adulthood. The program provides intensive case management with a strengths-based approach that meets the individual needs of youth and encourages them to set and pursue their own goals. The Counseling Center is open to the public and offers mental health services to children, adolescents and families in the community. Youth Haven's compassionate team of metal health clinicians helps to mend lives, utilizing a range of evidence-based and practice-informed therapeutic approaches.
