The Station 7 program is an emergency shelter for runaway or homeless youth in our community, ages 11-17. The program focuses on providing temporary crisis care for youth while helping them with life skills, goal-setting, and creating a stable plan to move forward towards a better future. Station 7 operates Project Safe Place which offers youth safe locations to go when they feel afraid or have run away from home. Station 7 operates a 24-hour crisis hotline for youth community members.

People who thrive in this program have a passion for helping others, the ability to relate with clients while upholding strong professional boundaries, and maintaining program rules. A bachelor's degree and/or prior experience working with at-risk youth is preferred but not required.

Our workforce and clientele represent a diverse set of people from all walks of life. As such, we are committed to fostering, cultivating, and preserving a culture of diversity and inclusion in the agency. All staff must embody and represent these, and other, Looking Glass agency values.
