Welcome to
WAYS for Life
WAYS for Life is a 501c3 nonprofit organization and drop-in center for youth ages 15-25 in Brevard County, Florida. We provide Wraparound Youth Services (WAYS) to help teens and young adults avoid homelessness and crime. We assist youth in removing barriers to their success by utilizing lifeline support networks.
We help youth find resources and creative solutions to issues such as housing, legal, employment, education, transportation, health care, wellness, and counseling. We understand that until immediate basic needs are met, it is nearly impossible to contemplate the future. We believe all youth should have equal opportunities for a successful future.
