INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Young adults experiencing homelessness in Indianapolis have a new resource.
Nonprofit organization 91 Place is opening Ase’s Place, which will provide emergency housing for up to nine people ages 18-34, and is only the second emergency intake shelter in Indianapolis dedicated to this population.
Named after a former client, Ase’s Place is designed to be a safe and support environment for young people facing housing instability. The program provides not only immediate shelter, but also supportive services, which include case management, education, employment resources, and pathways to more permanent housing.
“Young people in crisis deserve a place where they can feel safe, respected, and supported,” said CEO Ali
Cross. “Ase’s Place will provide immediate stability at a critical moment and help young adults take their
next steps toward independence.”
“We’re not just here to give a bed for the night, we’re here to help young people build something real for
their future,” said Director of Housing Michael Anderson. “Ase’s Place is one more way we’re showing up
to help young people fight against homelessness.”
