<strong>Huckleberry</strong> <strong>House</strong> <strong>2012</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong><br />

Transitional Living Program<br />

Healthier, happier homes of their own.<br />

Teaching teens to live independently.<br />

Some teens can’t go home. They may be homeless.<br />

Or they may face family problems, such as<br />

violence or drug abuse, that make it unsafe for<br />

them to return to their former homes. Through<br />

the Transitional Living Program, Huck <strong>House</strong><br />

helps transition-age youth establish homes of<br />

their own.<br />

Beyond securing four walls and a roof, Independent<br />

Living Mentors work one-on-one with the<br />

teens in the program to help them set and achieve<br />

financial, health and wellness, education, parenting,<br />

and employment goals. Through the Transitional<br />

Living Program, transition-age youth develop<br />

the independent living skills they need not only to<br />

survive, but to thrive.<br />
