The facility
is a 16,000 square foot 24-hour emergency shelter providing a total
of 20 beds for children between the ages of 12 and 18. Located
at 72710 East Lynn Street in Thousand Palms, the shelter is accessible
to public transportation so youth have easy access even if they
don't have their own transportation.
Operation
SafeHouse had a large number of Valley civic and community leaders
who formed an advisory group to assist in developing services and
managing the development of a local shelter facility. The
Committee was comprised of representatives of local law enforcement,
nonprofit service providers, developers and community volunteers.
