We can help. The Florida Network connects youth and families across Florida to confidential services, at no cost to the family -- including emergency shelter, counseling and support programs available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every day of the year.
Short Term Residential Support
Florida Network shelters give young people ages 10-17 a safe place to stay for a little while, and someone to talk to about whatever is going on in their life. These shelters serve as a place for kids who are:
Out of Control
Homeless
Running Away
Skipping School
Depressed
Anxious
Lacking Confidence
Grieving
Withdrawn
Disconnected
Defiant
Aggressive
Our network of shelters around the state never close. There will always be people there to answer the phone or the door. Our counselors help families resolve differences, solve problems and talk to each other about their feelings. If a family needs more help than we can offer, we introduce them to people who can help them, and make sure they are getting what they need.
Stop Now And Plan groups are for parents with children ages 6-11, who struggle with their feelings. Highly trained facilitators work with each family to assess challenges and develop an action plan. As your child’s behavior improves, your family grows stronger. Free childcare for siblings and meals for everyone are always included. SNAP helps us build stronger, more united families.
Counseling services are available to children and teens ages 6-17 and their families to help them survive crisis and thrive beyond it. Our counselors help you discover the tools to make things better at home. All services are free and confidential.
