Homeless Prevention Program

The Homeless Prevention Program is an initiative aimed at providing individuals in identified at-risk groups facing homelessness with portable rent supplements and support services to help them access rental housing in the private (non-subsidized) housing market.

• Youth transitioning out of foster care

Individuals can receive assistance for up to a year in the program.
