Welcome to the Youth Resiliency Hub
It's hard out there for a young person on your own, and we know what that feels like. That's why we came together to create this resource, where you can get the details on services you need, and let other youth know what you think of the shelters, mental health services, or employment centres you have used in Toronto.
Read or write reviews, check out articles about how to survive and thrive while life is in flux, and get in touch if you want to help us update and expand our database.
Information for At Risk Youth, by Youth with Lived Experience
The Youth Resiliency Hub service directory provides practical information for kids, teens and older youth to see if the shelters, health services and/or employment centres nearest to them will be a good fit, and it gives you a space to leave anonymous reviews.
Details are sourced by our dedicated team of youth with lived experience of homelessness, who have used the services. Please note that the accessibility menu checklist is updated to the best of our abilities- if you see something that needs to change, please let us know!
Reviews can be made by anyone who has used the service. Please note that in order to be anonymous, it is best to make up a screen name that you haven't used before on the review system, otherwise you may be able to be identified. Leave honest reviews, but stay safe!
Get involved!
Are you a kid, teen or youth who has lived or living experience of using shelter, health or employment services in Downtown Toronto? We'd love your help gathering information on the local services for our directory!

Help us help kids and youth in need
We have a great group of volunteers, but running this service isn't free to run and we'd love to offer stipends to our youth volunteers. All donations are tax deductible.
