Covenant House

Covenant House Texas (CHT) is a faith-based organization committed to giving homeless youth a safe haven, absolute respect, unconditional love, and a path to lasting independence. In partnership with the community, we are the voice for homeless youth.

Covenant House Texas opened its doors in 1983 to provide shelter and comprehensive services for homeless, abandoned and trafficked youth ages 18 – 24. After more than 40 years of service, CHT continues to offer a complete continuum of care for youth, including medical and mental health care, substance use counseling, education and career readiness training, street outreach and prevention, faith-based ministry and parenting classes, in addition to providing the basic necessities of food, clothing, and safe shelter.

The extensive programs CHT provides would not be possible without the support of community partners and volunteers. Churches, corporations and individuals are invited to engage with our mission in the following ways:

• Facilitating Bible studies, worship services and life skills workshops
• Providing meals and snack breaks through our our Catering to Youth program
• Participating in/serving at our Annual Special Events
• Organizing donation drives for essential needs (clothing, shoes, toiletries, linens, Bibles, baby items, etc.)
• Coordinating onsite activities and community outings for youth
• Contributing to Christmas Wishes
• Joining our Street Outreach Team
• ... and much more!
