Since 1986, Youth Without Shelter (YWS) has grown from a grassroots initiative with just 22 beds into a full continuum of care: redefining, reshaping, and reimagining the shelter system while remaining guided by the voices of the youth we serve.
Located in North Etobicoke, we provide a safe, welcoming space for youth aged 16–24 who are facing homelessness. mental health support, and other evidence-based services to help youth move from crisis to independence. Our wrap-around model of programming includes one-on-one guidance, delivered in a trauma-informed, strength-based environment. We provide emergency shelter, education and employment pathways. Every youth is seen, heard, and supported.
