Once we’re successful in helping kids get off the streets, the real test begins. If it takes nine months to get someone into housing, it may take twice that long working with them in an apartment environment before they feel fully capable and comfortable with taking care of themselves. Housing support teams will monitor their situations, and help young renters build a life centered around their community.
StandUp for Kids uses a centralized approach towards Housing, offering a wide range of programs.
Our housing program follows a Housing First model. It aims to provide a rapid rehousing and shelter diversion approach for precariously housed youth experiencing homelessness or experiencing transitional homelessness between the ages of 16 and 24.
StandUp for Kids offers a one-stop entry into Housing by providing a coordinated approach, meaning one referral to access Housing and supports within our programs.
