About Huschka House
Providing Safe Housing & Support for Homeless Young Adults in Northeast Tennessee
At Huschka House, our mission is to ensure every young adult in our region — especially those
aging out of foster care or facing homelessness — has the opportunity to build a stable, successful life.
We provide transitional housing, life-skills training, and supportive services for young adults
ages 18–21 who need a safe place to land.
We believe all young adults deserve a chance to thrive, to define their own future, and to make a positive impact on the world.
Why We Exist
Every year, young people in Northeast Tennessee exit the foster care system or experience housing instability without a safety net. Many end up homeless — often couch-surfing, sleeping in cars, or worse.
​
Huschka House exists to fill that gap.
​
We offer a place where these young adults can live safely, develop life skills, and gain independence — with the support of mentors, volunteers, and a caring community.
Our Core Beliefs:
🧡 Every young adult deserves a stable home
🧡 Support and mentorship changes lives
🧡 Empowerment is more effective than punishment
🧡 Equality, dignity, and acceptance are non-negotiable
What We Provide:
-
Safe, affordable housing in two transitional living homes
-
Life skills training: budgeting, cooking, applying for jobs
-
Case management and connection to community resources
-
A judgment-free space to grow, heal, and plan for the future
