A Place of Refuge

Our Story

A Place of Refuge was founded in 2009 by Rhonda Roberts-Barley to address the critical issue of homelessness among young men and women, particularly African American males aging out of foster care. Recognizing the lack of support for these individuals, the organization provides a nurturing environment that fosters self-love, self-respect, and self-sufficiency.

Our Impact

In Detroit, A Place of Refuge offers safe, short-term shelter while combating homelessness. The organization not only provides housing but also mentorship and educational programs that empower youth to become confident, self-sufficient adults.
