About Shelterlink
Shelterlink Youth Services is a Housing First for Youth (HF4Y) focused shelter providing youth with 24/7 support, 15 short-term emergency beds, basic needs, as well as employment and education resources.
H4FY is an approach to youth homelessness that prioritizes safe, appropriate, and affordable housing first. Once housed, support is put into place to assist youth with what they need to be successful from life skills to education to assistance with their health. The goal is to provide youth with the resources, guidance and care necessary for them to get a fresh start towards a successful and stable lifestyle.
