Homeless youth?
In Moncton?

It’s a bigger problem
than anyone realized.

TRANSITIONAL HOUSING PROGRAM
Coordinator: Amanda Fielding (869-6301)

Youth aged 16 to 20 who are homeless or potentially homeless use this program to stabilize and change their lives. They reside in a secure environment that offers the opportunity to learn skills that will lead to greater self-sufficiency, such as budgeting, nutrition, social and life skills, finding and maintaining employment, self-esteem, and anger management. A four-month after-care program is offered.

YOUTH QUEST CENTRAL

Coordinator: Chantal Landry (869-6355) 

Youth QUEST Central is a multi-resource centre for youth aged 16-24 who are either homeless or at risk of becoming homeless.  The facility, located at 199 St-George Street, includes laundry and shower facilities, academic upgrading, vocational and job-readiness training, information sessions, counselling, directional planning, and artistic and recreational programming.

October 2005 stood as an important month in Youth QUEST Central’s history as MYR held a  Grand Opening to announce the completion of its $1.35 million Capital Campaign, and staff from the agency’s various Outreach and Youth Q.U.E.S.T. programs moved into this heritage building.  A manager was hired in December 2005 and the ‘Drop-in component’ was launched in late January with a youth celebration.  Also in January, a meeting was held with 15 representatives from existing government and community services to coordinate the delivery of their programs and services directly from Youth QUEST Central.
