Great Friends

“Until our streets are safe…Until families can understand each other…Until drugs and violence disappear…Until no young person needs to run away or feel afraid…There must be Safe Place.”

With Friends is a community-based, non-profit organization meeting the needs of homeless, runaway, in crisis, and at-risk youth. Because of you, we provide residential shelter care, food, counseling, education, skill building, case management, outreach, follow-up and referral services that focus on positive youth development to youth ages 10-21 who are homeless, runaway, in crisis, and at-risk on Gaston, Cleveland, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Iredell, Stanly, and Union counties.
