About this service
Through our Roofs for Youth program, the Calgary John Howard Society (CJHS) provides housing for youth who are experiencing or at risk of homelessness, with support services based on their individual needs. The youth in our program may have involvement with the justice system and/or dont have family supports, or involvement from child intervention services.
How it works
Staff develop strong, one-on-one relationships with youth, helping them with goal planning; relationship development; skill development; schooling; advocacy; employment support; help navigating and understanding the justice system; strengthening natural supports; stabilization and outreach. Youth pay rent based on 30% of their income. Participation in the program is voluntary and youth cannot be forced to stay.
Through these supports, youth are guided into adulthood with the skills they need to achieve independence.
To apply for youth housing programs, visit SORCe (317 7th Ave SW) for an assessment.
Who can use it?
Marginalized youth 15-24 years of age
