A single unaccompanied youth must either seek shelter with family or friends or in the adult shelter system, where they do not receive appropriate support services. The FutureBound Transitional Housing Program model immediately responds to a growing need in the community, serving a full continuum of homeless youth with inadequate workforce and financial planning skills.
FTHP provides homeless youth with apartment housing in Rockville, Maryland, a resource-intensive area with direct access to public transportation, grocery and retail stores, and a variety of community supports. Our staff are available 24-hours/7 days a week to provide support and guidance, daily reminders regarding program standards and expectations, and to encourage participants to strive towards their goals and transition out of the program. Key program components include: 1) life skills development; 2) educational/vocational assistance; 3) workforce development; 4) savings 5) community linkages; and 6) aftercare support. To date, FTHP has served over 60 homeless youth
