If you know a teen or young person that is in crisis or if you are a young person in crisis (you do not have to be a teen to use this) then please read this!

For emergancy shelters in your area you send a text on your cell phone to 99-000 and then text in the word:
SHELTER + zipcode
(text the word SHELTER then space and then type in the zipcode where you are located).

Very quickly you should receive a reply giving you a list of shelters and contacts that will help you.

You can do the same thing for someone facing abuse or addiction by texting the word:
ABUSED + ZIPCODE
SOBER + ZIPCODE

Those words (to the 99-000 number) will also get you a list of shelters/help in your area (zip code region). Our database locates shelters and help for a 30 mile radius from your zip code entered.

Please pass along this information to everyone that might put it on their websites, post it in their ministry directories, etc.

Thank You,
Jeff and Kathi Pelton
