Purpose:

This report examines housing options for six subpopulations of youth who are overrepresented and underserved in the youth homelessness population in British Columbia. Given the diversity of needs among youth subpopulations included in this study, this report highlights approaches which option may be most promising for each. Housing models considered include: foyer housing, host home/supportive roommate; convertible leases; low barrier scattered-site housing, and low barrier congregate-site housing.
