Host Home OK
Host Home OK is a collaborative community project to address shelter and appropriate housing shortages for youth and young adults experiencing homelessness.
The program thrives on the generous hearts of community volunteers that open their homes to carefully selected youth in need of short term support while they navigate their unique situations.

Oklahoma City Public Schools counted 2,474 homeless students at the end of the 2019-2020 school year. Of those, 2,075 were couch homeless. Outside of the school system an average of 82 young adults are surveyed each winter either in shelters or on the streets of Oklahoma City (2016-2020).
Even with this data, it's difficult to count unaccompanied youth experiencing homelessness because they often try not to be located. Some don’t access services because they don’t know about them.
Host Home OK strives to create a safe, supportive environment for youth experiencing homelessness. As a Host Home, you can help a local youth transition out of homelessness and into the next phase of their life.
Host Home OK is made possible in partnership with Oklahoma Department of Mental Health & Substance Abuse Services, Sisu Youth Services, Pivot, Youth Villages and Point Source Youth.
