Even the strongest among us can face a moment that shakes our balance. That moment can look very different for different people, and for many, that moment comes without a safe, supportive place to turn.
Across York Region and South Simcoe, too many people are struggling with both mental health challenges and unsupportive living conditions. When these combine, people can find themselves with nowhere safe to stay, at risk of hospitalization, incarceration, or homelessness.
YSSN's Safe Spaces are that safe alternative where people can stay for a short while at no cost to them and begin to rebuild stability and hope.
It’s a safe and supportive haven where all my needs are met with staff that care and treat me with compassion.
Backed by YSSN’s 25+ years of leadership in community crisis response and 40+ years as a trusted social service hub, YSSN's Safe Spaces are part of a networked community of care that connects people to the right supports at the right time.
Our community partners — including, among others: Addiction Services Central Ontario, CMHA York Region South Simcoe, Community Living Central York, Krasman Centre, LOFT Community Support Services, and York Regional Police, help ensure each person’s journey continues with the support they need during their stay, and after.
When you give to YSSN's Safe Spaces, you’re helping create more than just a safe space — you’re helping someone move from surviving in crisis, to living with hope for a better future.
