24-Hour Crisis Hotline
707-444-CARE (2273)
“Our House” Crisis Shelter was established in 1991 as our
community recognized a need to offer services to prevent
youth from entering the Juvenile Justice and Child Welfare
Systems when necessary.
Youth who call Our House for shelter services may be
experiencing homelessness, severe family conflict or
fleeing from a dangerous living situation.
Our House Shelter is a temporary housing program
(maximum stay of 21 days) with the goal of family
reunification when appropriate. The majority of all sheltered youth return to their parent or guardian’s home after a brief
intervention by YSB. If re-entering the home is not a
possibility, then we help explore the next best option.
