When life feels unsteady, the right support can make all the difference. YSSN’s Safe Spaces offer short-term support in a safe, home-like setting at no cost, giving people a place to regroup and begin rebuilding stability, safety, and hope.
This year on #GivingTuesday, YSSN is launching a campaign to raise $50,000 to support three new Safe Spaces for people facing significant life challenges — including those navigating unstable or unsafe living conditions.
Across York Region and South Simcoe, many individuals are struggling with both mental health challenges and environments that don’t support their wellbeing. Without a safe place to turn, people can become vulnerable to hospitalization, incarceration, or homelessness.
YSSN’s Safe Spaces provide a compassionate alternative: welcoming, supportive environments where people can stay briefly, connect with help, and take steps toward a safer and more stable future.
You can help build it — here's how.
