A San Diego organization has transformed the way it serves the teen and young adult homeless population after drastic changes brought on by the pandemic.
But the pandemic forced Doors of Change to close its center, leaving the group with no central location. So they began to prioritize outreach efforts, with teams canvassing the county several times a week and posting flyers about their services.
Door of Change founder Jeffrey Sitcov says they’ve also seen an increase in the number of young homeless people seeking help for mental health issues since the pandemic started. “We said, we've got to do something about this. If not, they're going to commit suicide. You know, drug overdose,” Sitcov said, “There's so much pressure on them. So we said, let's bring the doctor to them.”
