Hope Homes
Assisting youth in finding safe and stable housing options
About Hope Homes
The Hope Homes Program assists youth in finding safe and stable housing options and offers individualized supports for youth, 16-24 years old, who are unhoused.
Hope Homes operates from Housing First, Harm Reduction and Trauma Informed Practice models of care. To understand how homelessness is defined, please click here.
Hope Homes works with youth to:
- Locate appropriate housing options based on their needs
- Connect to community and professional resources
- Build their capacity and self-efficacy to transition to adulthood successfully
- Work towards their educational and employment goals
- Build their support networks and strengthen interpersonal relationships
- Connect to cultural resources
Hope Homes – Rapid Re-Housing Model
Rapid Re-Housing is a short-term housing program (6-9 months) for youth aged 16-24 years old who are experiencing episodic or transitional homelessness.
In addition to short term housing, we help youth strengthen their connections with family, friends and community and provide them with case management support.
Hope Homes is funded by the Calgary Homeless Foundation.
