The YP Housing Support connects 2SLGBTQIA+ community members in the HRM to housing and other supports. All aspects of the program are voluntary and no fee for service, and you don’t have to be out to access support.
We provide information and resources to 2SLGBTQIA+ youth 16-30 to live in safer, affordable, and affirming homes. Self-referral is encouraged.
Please note, this program is staffed by one person. As a result, we will prioritize those who are currently unhoused or at immediate risk of losing housing. Our services can be accessed by phone, text, video call, as well as by email at housing@youthproject.ns.ca.
