Who we help
The youth we serve are diverse, resilient and have dreams for a better future. Thousands of youth have found a path forward, with your support.
The Problem
Every day, youth across Canada struggle with homelessness and sex trafficking.
- As many as 40,000 young people in Canada experience homelessness every year
- Over 50 per cent of homeless youth indicated that abuse at home contributed to their homelessness
- 17 years old is the average age for victims of sex trafficking
- 55 per cent of victims are recruited into sex trafficking by someone they know
Our solution
Advocate: Improve outcomes for young people by influencing policy and systems
Prevent: Raise awareness and provide training to help stop homelessness and trafficking from happening
Build and share knowledge: Use research and program evaluation to inform best practices and meet the needs of youth
Deliver impactful programming: Provide comprehensive resources and services to support youth in their journey
