Transitional housing programs are essential for providing stability and support to youth experiencing homelessness. These programs typically offer housing for one to two years along with case management and support services. However, many existing models are not tailored to the specific needs of 2SLGBTQ+ youth, leading to mismatches and exclusions. This resource, published by the Canadian Observatory on Homelessness, examines various housing models and highlights the need for inclusive and adaptable options to ensure 2SLGBTQ+ youth can find environments where they feel safe and supported.

Key Points:

• Transitional Housing: Overview of programs providing temporary housing and support.
• Challenges for 2SLGBTQ+ Youth: Issues with existing models not designed specifically for 2SLGBTQ+ needs.
• Need for Inclusive Options: Advocacy for more tailored and long-term housing solutions.
