Bridging the Gap - Host Homes

I received details today about Bridging the Gap, a safe place community program for youth 16-24 in Halton. Stays are either short 2-5 days or long term up to 16 weeks. Bridging the Gap are on the ongoing search for host home providers. They can be contacted on 1-877-425-8661 or 905-635-0663. Bridging the Gap workers support both the host home provider and the youth. They screen and place youth in host homes. There are responsibilities and expectations for both the host home provider and the youth. Host home providers receive some financial support.
