Housing and After-care

Many of the youth we serve lack a safe, stable place to call home. These young people face challenges that can interfere with their sense of self and their hopes for the future.

We provide youth with a safe space to call home, which is essential in their journey towards stability.

Every young person will find acceptance, love and shelter at Covenant House. Our housing programs give youth the recovery time they need to get back on their feet. Our after-care services give youth the tools to maintain independence over the long run.

Our impact

84 young people made up the average daily occupancy in our crisis centre.

572 youth were supported in our drop-in centre, annually.

190+ youth workers on staff to support youth every step of the way.

24-7 availability, with 3 staff shifts, welcoming youth day and night.

All numbers above based on Covenant House Toronto administrative data (2021).
