Our Mission

Eddy House creates a safe environment for homeless and at-risk youth to develop the life and job skills necessary for sustainable independence.

“The way we treat our most vulnerable is a reflection on who we are as a community. These are the community’s kids, we can’t ignore it. These kids are in a constant state of crisis and it’s a public health issue.”

-Lynette Eddy

Eddy House is the central intake and assessment facility in Northern Nevada. The objective of the Eddy House is to end youth homelessness in Reno, Nevada. To accomplish this, we identify homeless, at-risk, and aged-out foster youth through extensive outreach in Downtown Reno.

Greater Nevada Credit Union’s passion is ‘Helping More People Live Greater.’ With the Greater Nevada Mortgage (GNM) Keys to Greater program, a portion of the revenue from every new mortgage or refinanced mortgage funded through GNM is donated to the Eddy House and other organizations working to serve the homeless community. Greater Nevada Credit Union teaches financial literacy classes to the youth at Eddy House to give them the tools they need for independence.

These businesses and foundations proudly support the Eddy House mission.
