About MoCo Reconnect

The MoCo ReConnect Drop-in Center is a unique approach in Montgomery County as the only dedicated youth space specifically centering the needs of youth ages 16-24, particularly those impacted by housing insecurity and seeking alternative opportunities to traditional education pathways.

MoCo ReConnect values youth as decision-makers and has centered the design of the space and programming around the voice of our Youth Action Board. The Drop-in center brings together, for the first time under one roof, a collaboration of agencies providing outreach, case management, education, housing assistance, and employment training.

Recognizing that Black, Latinx, and LGBTQIA+ young people are disproportionately impacted by systems that lead to disconnection from school and/or homelessness, the Collaboration Council, through MoCo ReConnect, ensures that providers offer culturally relevant programming and LGBTQIA service navigators to create a safe and welcoming space for all.
