Supportive Housing
Good Seed supportive housing program for Transition-Age Youth is more than “three meals and a bed.” We understand the value of a supportive and nurturing environment for young adults who have suffered from long-term instability. Good Seed encourages a learning environment focused on training, productivity and self-sufficiency. Our team assists clients to “rise to the occasion” to meet goals as small as learning how to use a washing machine to completing their financial aid forms online for college, in order to prepare them to assume adult responsibilities. If you decide to come to Good Seed, we will work hard to make sure this is your last shelter.
Supportive Housing Program
Good Seed Transitional Housing Program provides comprehensive services for homeless youth ages 18-25, who are diagnosed as SED/SPMI. Young people live in a shared, supervised environment in Los Angeles County while they receive counseling, independent living skills training, and employment services. The goal of the “As long as needed” program is to help youth become self-sufficient adults with strong connections to the community. Like all Good Seed programs, the emphasis of this program is on helping youth not only live, but THRIVE!

Enhanced Emergency TAY Shelter
We provide temporary shelter for Transition Aged Youth (“TAY”) clients in a supportive housing environment for up to 36 nights. While housed, each TAY must pursue their long-term goals, which includes securing permanent housing while building their capacity to navigate life’s challenges and opportunities. Most TAY take advantage of our comprehensive services to seek employment, education and other long term life goals. The Enhanced Emergency Shelter Program offers a warm, clean and safe place to sleep, clean facilities, and three meals every day. We provide case management and offer additional supportive services such as an apprenticeship program.
