PYXIS

Our Facility

Our Facility

The Pyxis Youth Center is located at 311 Seymour Avenue in Lansing, MI. We boast a warm open seating arrangement for any and all to take temporary shelter from the elements, although we do not have long-term housing available. This is where we host our public workshops, donation drives, and other community-based activities. One of the most beloved features of our facility is our community garden, where we grow a small selection of vegetables through the spring and autumn months to give as thanks to the volunteers and locals that help keep our youth center functioning.

Our Services

Some of the public workshops our local volunteer graduate students lead include professional development and resume building, job searching, finance, English as a second language tutoring, and non heteronormative safe sex classes. We also employ LGBTQ-identified and informed counselors to help individuals find more permanent, safe options for housing and mental health resources, regardless of their situation. They’re also here if anyone just needs someone to listen to their story.

Get Involved

You can donate food, new or clean used clothing, personal hygiene products, and love and support for your community 24/7 at our facility by communicating with our front desk clerk.
