Housing

Since December 2014, 17 permanent housing units have been available to 15 young people and two families.

This achievement was many years in the making – Pops long dreamed of it as a way of giving our youth a fresh start in life.

Community support is offered within the building to promote socialization and combat isolation.

Counsellors strive to ensure that this first housing experience is a positive one and to encourage youth to take advantage of the stability it provides to take concrete steps toward a better future, such as going back to school or finding a job.

Two new housing programs

Dans la rue and its partners offer two new programs for young people experiencing homelessness who are looking for an independent experience in private housing.

Dans la rue Housing

When youth who uses the Bunker and Day Centre feel ready to take the next step in their journey away from homelessness, they can find a stable living environment through Dans la rue housing.
Logements de Sassou

Visit to the apartment of Sassou

Sassou was waiting for me in the common room with Kris, one of the on-site counsellors. She seemed nervous about our visit, but I could also sense her enthusiasm and pride at being selected as the subject of this profile piece. She had been recommended to me by the counsellors as someone who kept her living space impeccably clean, who worked hard at school and who was the epitome of resilience.
