My Story…
YOUTH DON'T CHOOSE TO BE HOMELESS
- Age of youth accessing shelters in London is getting younger, with youth as young as 16 accessing shelter space
- 26% of people accessing shelters are 24 years and younger
- 68% of homeless youth come from group care
- 79% of homeless youth have experienced two or more types of child abuse
The YOU Housing First Youth Shelter will ensure that all youth get what they need urgently – a safe place to sleep, eat and shower.
- 30 Individual rooms. Safety for youth, peace of mind.
- Pet friendly. Youth do not have to choose between a roof over their heads and their most loyal companions
- No time limit. Youth will not be asked to leave after a month.
- Housing First: Get a roof over their heads, then focus on supports
- Diversion: Can we divert the youth away from the Shelter system entirely by connecting them with family or friends?
- Rapid re-housing: Focus on finding affordable housing for long-term results
