Hi,

Thanks for reaching out to advocate for your friend. It sounds like he’s in a tough spot right now and he’s lucky to have a friend like you in his corner. Based on the situation, it sounds like your friend might want to look into transitional living programs (TLP), which are similar to shelters but are more long-term. TLPs are intended to help young adults get on their feet and “learn the ropes” of adulthood. Some TLPs also offer counseling and help with education. If your friend needs help locating a TLP in the area, please feel free to pass our number along: 1-800-786-2929. Another resource for locating affordable mental health services is the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration referral line at 1-877-726-4727.
