Housing for Youth

Supportive Housing for Youth In and Leaving Foster Care

Finding safe and stable housing can be one of the hardest parts of leaving foster care. At Aunt Leah’s, we offer housing programs designed to support youth who are in government care or leaving care and who are at risk of homelessness.

Whether you need a place to live, help with rent, or support as you move toward independence, we’re here to make sure you don’t have to do it alone. We can help with things like: finding a safe place to live, getting help with rent through rental supplements or housing costs, learning about your rights and responsibilities as a tenant, talking with landlords and navigating housing challenges, and transitioning to more independent living when you’re ready and more.

Explore our Housing programs to learn more about how we can support you.

Support Link

Support Link is for youth aged 16 to 18 who are in foster care and ready to take steps toward independence. You’ll live in a semi-independent suite while learning essential life skills, building confidence, and receiving guidance from caring staff. The program also helps you foster meaningful connections with your community through hands-on learning, mentorship, and supportive relationships.
