Why we're here

 

The kids that come to us for help feel abandoned, rejected and alone. They've often faced terrible situations in their past. They are victims of physical and sexual abuse, they've suffered human trafficking, or they have witnessed drug and alcohol misuse by their family members. As a result, the physical and emotional trauma has affected them and caused them to flee their homes, seeking refuge on the streets.

 

We're here to fight against the crisis of homelessness; to give these youth a fresh start and a source of unconditional love and absolute respect. At Covenant House Vancouver, we're more than just a shelter or transitional housing. With us, young people always have a place to call home and a family that genuinely cares for them.
