Iowa Homeless Youth Centers - Des Moines

Iowa Homeless Youth Centers (IHYC) works to eliminate homelessness among children, youth, and young families in Central Iowa. We believe, with support and assistance, homeless youth can attain self-sufficiency and break the cycle of poverty.

Through case management and advocacy, our dedicated staff works with youth (16.5-24) and young families to become self-sufficient, and plan for a healthy and successful future. Drop-In Services, emergency beds, meals, mental health counseling, are some of the services offered.  Call, email, or visit the website for more info.
