Giving prominence to the voices of young people themselves, this
study explores their attempts to exit street life--and looks at the
supports and barriers that help or hinder them in this process.
Youth between 16 and 24 are considered the fastest growing segment
of the homeless population in Canada. While much has been written
about street engagement and street culture, little attention has
been paid to how youth move away from the street. From shelters and
programs to mental health and drug use, this book examines the
services that are available--and those that should be available--to
help street youth find housing, income, and the strength needed to
start a new life.
