Maintains a message service for youth who want to relay a message but are not ready to communicate directly with their parent. Serves as a less intimidating means for youth to reestablish contact with their parent/guardian and often serves as the first step toward reunification. In addition, a parent may access the service to leave a message for their child to be delivered if/when their child contacts NRS.

In partnership with Greyhound Lines, Inc., NRS helps reunite qualified runaway youth ages 12-21 with their families, or alternate living arrangement through a free bus ticket home. Youth must call to start the process.

Provides case management services to youth/young adults who are homeless or are in a crisis that could lead to homelessness, with a goal of engaging the caring adults in the youth's lives.  Helps youth engage with the natural supports in their lives and to stabilize in a safe environment, whether that be the family home or another positive living situation.
