About this event
There are 800 youths in the Thompson School District that do not have a steady place to sleep every night. This can include those who are couch surfing, bouncing between a friend's or relative's homes; staying in shelters or hotels; or living in unsuitable trailers or homes.
The need for a youth shelter has been known for quite some time, but there was not a suitable building available until the Monroe Early Childhood Center vacated its building and moved to Peakview Academy at Conrad Ball, which opened this school year.
The Homeless Youth Shelter project is a collaboration between the state, Larimer County, the Thompson School District, Poudre School District, City of Loveland, CSU, and The Matthews House, which will operate the new facility.
