Youth transitional housing in Winnipeg
Most young people move straight into their own fully furnished apartment. Some start in a shared home with their own room. Every step comes with 24/7 support and builds confidence, skills, and stability.
Where We Are Now
31 units today. 68 more on the way.
We operate 31 fully furnished, modern units across three buildings, and many of them are two-bedroom. Alongside them is a network of shared program homes across Winnipeg. Every unit is designed with dignity in mind: a real home, not a placement. And we are still growing.
Opening now: a 22-unit building getting a full renovation, with a shared common space and a commercial-style kitchen on the main floor. Each young person there has their own furnished suite, a first apartment before moving on to a bigger place or a roommate.
Our apartment buildings have building staff on site about 16 hours a day. They look after the building and grounds, keep an eye on who's coming and going, and deal with anything that comes up. They work for the building and are not caregivers.

The Journey
Three phases to independence
Placement is by need, not age. Every young person starts where they need to and moves forward at their own pace.
Foundations
Shared homes where residents run their own day. They cook for themselves, do their own laundry, and come and go freely, with 24/7 support and a stable place to begin the healing journey.

Transitional Living
Their own fully furnished apartment, where most young people start. A 16- or 17-year-old who is ready can start here too. Residents manage their own cooking, cleaning, and budget, with 24/7 support and regular coaching. Building staff are on site about 16 hours a day to look after the building; they are not caregivers.
