Point Source Youth

Point Source Youth is a nonprofit focused on preventing youth homelessness through youth-centered solutions. Its work includes direct cash transfers, the Targeted Housing Assistance Program, and a national prevention learning collaborative connecting homelessness experts, young adults with lived experience, and community partners.

Through partnerships with local organizations, Point Source Youth combines flexible financial assistance with optional supports such as housing navigation, financial coaching, peer support, employment help, and life-skills guidance. Its Targeted Housing Assistance Program helps young people create housing plans and use one-time payments to put those plans into action, guided by youth choice, independence, and housing-first principles.
