<prompt> Human: They will tell you the location of the nearest shelter for homeless teens. There are programs in place all over the country to help people just like you find a safe place to live while you figure out your next step. They provide a place to stay, good, job counseling and general counseling and its all at no cost to you. THEY ARE YOUR SAFETY NET.  <response>: I was homeless when I was 19, I was way to proud for something like this, ended up getting caught stealing food and ruined many job opportunities for myself for years to come. Ultimately, a friend let me crash on his couch for about 6 months while I got a job and saved for an apartment. Such a great person! And I am forever in his debt
