The Wisconsin Association for Homeless and Runaway Services (WAHRS) is a coalition of community-based, voluntary, non-profit agencies dedicated to preventing and ending youth homelessness in Wisconsin. They provide preventive and crisis counseling, temporary shelter, and referral services to troubled youth, as well as family counseling to promote reconciliation with parents whenever possible.
WAHRS aims to bring together a broad-based constituency interested in improving and supporting services for runaway and homeless youth, advocate for legislation and regulations that enhance these services, and secure adequate funding to maintain their programs. With a focus on collaboration, advocacy, inclusion, and social justice, WAHRS strives to create fair and equitable communities that provide safe spaces and opportunities for all Wisconsin youth.
