Housing Centre

Our Housing Story The intent of Nanaimo’s Youth Housing Centre is to provide safe, supportive and/or affordable housing and personal development options to youth between the ages of 16 and 25 years old. Applicants are assessed on their current requirement for housing based on specific criteria, including the applicant’s need, safety concerns, current living situation, and ability to pay toward the actual cost of housing.
