“The House” is located in the Fraser / King Edward area of East Vancouver, and is a substance-free home for youth who desire structure, support and accountability in their lives. Two house parents reside in the home with up to five youth, modelling healthy living skills and providing an optimum level of support. A unique care plan is developed for each youth in the home in order to help them pursue their dreams. We encourage youth to remain connected to their families and welcome visits from their family and friends. Youth are able to remain at The House as long as they remain committed to moving forward in their lives. Youth living at The House are required to be attending school or working. The House is built on Christian principles and values, and is designed for youth who desire this spiritual component in their lives.
