Y2Y Network, Inc.

Y2Y Network is building student-led programming to interrupt the cycle of homelessness for a generation of young adults. Y2Y employs a youth-to-youth model to provide a safe and affirming environment for young adults ages 18 to 24 experiencing homelessness. After successfully launching and operating Y2Y Harvard Square, the nation’s first youth-led shelter for young people experiencing homelessness, Y2Y Network has been working in partnership with Youth Continuum and students from across New Haven to operate Y2Y New Haven, a student-led overnight program for young adults, ages 18-24, experiencing homelessness.  

Y2Y’s work has been locally and nationally recognized for its innovative approach and shelter design.  Our co-founders Sam Greenberg and Sarah Rosenkrantz  have been honored as Forbes 30 under 30, and Honorable Mention for the Boston Globe Magazine’s Bostonian of the Year.
