At just 14, Mia felt unheard and overwhelmed. A disagreement at home over social media and school led her to leave without permission, searching for answers on her own. When she couldn’t enroll in classes, frustration turned to uncertainty. With nowhere else to turn, Mia reached out to Safe Place.
With the support of a Safe Place staff member, she was able to calm down, express her feelings, and reconnect with her family in a safe and supportive way. Through The Children’s Cabinet, Mia and her family received case management services, helping them rebuild trust and find a path forward—together.
No young person should feel alone. Safe Place is here 24/7.
