Avenues for Youth is a Minneapolis, Minnesota-based organization that provides shelter, short-term housing, and supportive services to homeless youth in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Its programs include shelter-based and transitional housing, host home arrangements, and housing for young families, all delivered through a trauma-informed, strength-based, and non-judgmental approach designed to support youth toward long-term stability and thriving adulthood. The organization emphasizes principles such as equity, community, respect and dignity, trust, liberation, and anti-oppression, and offers onsite access to mental health therapy, nursing, education, and career supports within six programs that serve more than 300 youth annually. In recent years, Avenues has expanded its facilities and programs in Minneapolis, including developments toward a new complex that will include shelter, housing, and headquarters, reflecting its continued growth and commitment to expanded services for youth experiencing homelessness. The organization has operated for 24 years and collaborates with supporters and partner organizations to sustain its mission.
