About Us

The children’s shelter at the Gene Glick Family Support Center offers emergency, temporary housing for children experiencing crises in Indianapolis and central Indiana. The facility offers a safe haven to runaway and homeless youth, as well as kids removed from their homes due to child abuse and neglect. The children’s shelter also offers planned respite services for families who are experiencing significant stress and challenges at home. On average, kids stay at the shelter for less than two weeks. The children’s shelter serves more than 300 children a year. In addition to providing a safe, welcoming environment, the shelter team ensures youth receive education, enrichment, and therapy designed to equip them for independent living and a brighter future.
