With over 27 years of experience providing unconditional love and absolute respect to youth experiencing homelessness, Covenant House Vancouver (“CHV”) makes a positive difference for at-risk youth across Western Canada. The organization helps homeless, at-risk, and trafficked young people aged 16 to 24.

CHV offers a continuum of services using evidence-informed theories and practices that ensure they care for the entire person — mind, body, and spirit. Services range from outreach and drop-in to housing and support services that enable youth to transition into independence successfully. Enhancing the understanding of the related issues and delivering on impactful responses to them has been a hallmark of Covenant House, and few not-for-profits in this market have earned such a strong reputation for the way in which the organization goes about its work: professionally, consistently and empathetically, using data-driven approaches.
