Haven for minors
A youth shelter is a facility providing temporary housing and support services for young people who are homeless, runaways, or in crisis.
These shelters typically serve teenagers and young adults, offering not just a place to sleep but often meals, counseling, and help reconnecting with family or finding stable housing: She stayed at a youth shelter after leaving home.
