Autonomy and independence for homeless youth

Logement Jeunesse Montréal, in partnership with Ressources Jeunesse de Saint-Laurent, Ricochet/Action Jeunesse de l’Ouest-de-l’Île and Foyer de jeunes travailleurs et travailleuses de Montréal, and JALON, an initiative developed and run by Dans la rue, are two programs for 18-to-30-yearolds experiencing homelessness who would like to find a place and live on their own but need support to do so.

For better social integration and a stable life

Most have been through the youth protection system and no longer have any contact with their families. Program participants will be entitled to a rent subsidy and weekly check-ins from a housing support counsellor. They will also be provided with a basic starter kit and financial assistance in furnishing their apartment and stocking up on grocery staples.

Through these programs, youth will receive a helping hand in looking for an apartment, communicating with landlords, resolving any conflicts that may arise and developing household budgeting and other core skills.

YOUR GENEROSITY MAKES THESE AND OTHER SERVICES POSSIBLE.
