Safe Place is the first step to help for any youth in crisis or at risk. This community collaboration program, operated by youth shelters or youth serving agencies make it possible for any youth to access help at locations including fast food restaurants, convenience stores, fire stations, libraries and city buses which display the Safe Place sign.

March 14-20 is National Safe Place Week.

Youth can easily find help at Safe Place sites in their neighborhood whenever they need it. Safe Place connects youth to immediate help and safety and offers supportive services to both youth and their families.

Tahoe Youth & Family Services salutes the more than 125 Safe Place businesses and organizations in the South Lake Tahoe, Minden, Gardnerville & Alpine County areas. To make your business a Safe Place, contact Julie Franklin at (775) 782.4202 or julie@tahoeyouth.org.
