Located near McKinley Park, 180 Degrees St. Cloud Youth Shelter is the only 24-hour emergency shelter for youth under 19 in a large, 13-county region of Central Minnesota.
In 2024, with community support, interior shelter renovations were completed. This $4.3 million investment has dramatically uplifted the facility. New gathering spaces, private bedrooms for all youth, a spacious kitchen, and lots of natural lighting create an environment that supports healing and growth for youth.
Phase 3 of the $5.1 million Building Brighter Futures capital campaign will raise funds for exterior repairs, a new classroom, and a volunteer/donation center. Please make your gift today. Your contribution will ensure that St. Cloud & Central Minnesota homeless and in-crisis youth continue to have a safe, warm, welcoming shelter, available 24/7. More than 2,500 youth have turned to 180 Degrees St. Cloud Youth Shelter for shelter.
When home is no longer safe due to parental neglect, chemical or mental health issues; when youth and families need time and space to work through conflict; or when youth find themselves couch-hopping or sleeping outside, 180 Degrees is here to help -- without judgment. Open 24-hours, 7 days a week, 180 Degrees' supportive program serves youth ages 12-19 from across Central Minnesota who experience or are at-risk for homelessness, sex trafficking and sexual exploitation, violence and neglect. Case managers empower youth to identify strengths, explore resources, and develop goals and plans to realize their potential.
