Through direct street outreach, staff build trusting relationships by offering basic needs such as food and clothing and connecting youth to shelter, safe housing, and supportive services that reduce risk of exploitation and promote stability and self-sufficiency.

Anchor House runs three programs in conjunction with the Trenton/Mercer Continuum of Care (CoC): two Rapid Rehousing Programs including one designed to meet the needs of LGBTQI+ youth that launched in July 2024, and Coordinated Entry Assessment System (CEAS). Anchor House started our first Rapid Rehousing program in 2009 to serve youth ages 18-24 who are HUD-eligible for supportive housing. The program provides rental assistance along with comprehensive support services, including case management, employment and educational assistance, life skills training, housing counseling, and assistance with housing searches. In July 2024, Anchor House launched a new Rapid Rehousing program specifically designed to meet the needs of youth who identify as LGBTQI+, a population that experiences disproportionately high rates of homelessness. Anchor House's Coordinated Entry Assessment System (CEAS) team serves youth who are homeless, ages 18-24. CEAS works closely with all community partners serving this population to streamline and coordinate the navigation of youth through housing assessments and services, community and street outreach, crisis intervention and case management, and referrals to social service agencies. This team is integrated into the City of Trenton's Coordinated Entry and Assessment System under the CoC. Youth are encouraged to participate on our Youth Advisory Council (YAC) where they can contribute to service planning, program development, and evaluation at Anchor House, and advocate on behalf of young people experiencing homelessness and other related issues on a broader scale. 646123 5918 The Anchorage Transitional Living Program provides shelter, food, clothing, medical attention, psychological evaluations, therapy, individual and group counseling, life skills training, employment and educations services to homeless youth ages 18-21 to ensure their successful transition to independence.

CTH provides supportive services and apartments through Housing Choice Vouchers for Section 8 Housing for up to 20 youth. CTH has been serving an increasing number of children through this program as several residents are parenting youth (59% in 2024, 70% in 2025). Our Life Skills Program served youth referred by the NJ Department of Child Protection and Permanency (DCP&P).
