TGTHR, formerly Attention Homes TGTHR is a social movement and nonprofit, working with courageous communities to end youth homelessness. For youth between the ages of 12-24 we provide life changing resources such as: employment assistance, education programs, supportive housing, short term housing, permanent supportive housing, long-term housing navigation, support and inclusivity groups, family coaching services, life-skills development, mental and physical wellness support, and an array of individual and group activities. Homelessness is not just a lack of shelter. It’s the absence of a home — a place where somebody feels safe, comfortable, secure, and valued. Ending youth homelessness requires all young people to have a place to live, employment, access to education, wellness, and a supportive community. That’s what TGTHR has been delivering for almost 60 years. It takes all types of partners to end youth homelessness. Whether you are an individual, business, community group, school, or government agency, you play a vital role in this work.

We were established in 1955 as a home for needy women. Through the years we have continued to offer effective programs to meet their needs.

Evangel Home is a Christian ministry that believes in the worth of each individual and in the power of Jesus Christ to restore broken lives. We believe that each woman must learn to take responsibility for her life and our programs are aimed to help them become victors rather than to remain victims of harsh circumstances. Our basic philosophy is that we are most effective focusing on one woman 1,000 ways rather than 1,000 women one way.
