Youth homelessness doesn’t need to happen, and it shouldn’t. United Way East Ontario, like so many throughout Prescott-Russell, Ottawa, Lanark County and Renfrew County, shares a common goal to end it.
That’s why we invest in culturally, age appropriate programs that provide housing and wrap-around services, support evidence-based solutions such as the ‘Housing First’ model, and work with partners like the Alliance to End Homelessness and A Way Home Ottawa to advocate for and strengthen the system that supports our most at-risk youth.
