Description

Covenant House New Orleans provides shelter and services to homeless, runaway and at-risk youth 16 - 21. On any given night we have about 75 kids in residence. We have grown since our humble beginning in 1984 when we offered outreach and referral services from a leased office on Canal Street. Our 70-bed Crisis Center opened in 1987 and two transitional living residences, with an additional 25 beds, were added a year later. Since then we have touched the lives of over 17,000 youth, providing them with food, shelter, clothing, medical attention, individual and family counseling, substance abuse management, educational assistance, vocational and job training, living skills and so much more. We seek to rebuild and reunite families whenever possible, or offer youth the opportunity and the tools they need to build healthy, independent and productive lives.
