“For 35 years, we have been honored and grateful to serve runaway, homeless, trafficked, and at-risk youth ages 11-24 throughout Riverside County”.
Since our founding in 1990 by Amy S. Harrison, Susan Stark-Gigandet, and an innovative Board of Directors, SafeHouse has remained at the forefront of youth programming in our county. Our emergency shelter in Riverside—still the only one of its kind serving runaway, homeless, and at-risk youth under 18—was just the beginning. Over the years, we have expanded to include additional programs in Riverside and Thousand Palms, responding to the growing need for services for youth in crisis. No matter the challenge, SafeHouse has always been a place where young people can turn to for support, referrals, and compassionate care.
We are deeply grateful that youth continue to seek us out in times of crisis, knowing they will find understanding and a path to stability. Our mission remains steadfast: to ensure every young person we serve finds safety, encouragement, and a secure future.
Our success would not be possible without the incredible partnerships we have built—with agencies, individuals, and private foundations that provide funding, resources, and collaboration. Your unwavering belief in our mission, along with the love and support of our community, makes our work possible.
From the bottom of our hearts, we thank each and every one of you—our supporters, donors, volunteers, and partners. Your generosity and dedication over the past 35 years has changed countless lives.
We could not do this, without YOU.
Thank you for an amazing 35 years of serving Riverside County |
