There are so many ways to Be A Relative!

The Relatives has several unique programs specifically serving homeless and runaway youth in Mecklenburg County. Our Youth Crisis Center operates around-the-clock 365 days a year, making sustainable funding vital to keeping our doors open for youth in crisis. Funding is provided by government grants, corporations and foundations, and individuals like you.

The more than 5,000 youth served by The Relatives each year need your help. The Relatives gladly accepts monetary contributions as well as in-kind donations of certain goods and services. We also offer volunteer opportunities for groups and individuals from mentoring to house maintenance projects.
