PARC supports young Torontonians aged 18 to 29 who have left the child welfare system. They are supported in developing key goals and skills in the following areas: health and mental health, education, employment, immigration, nutrition and wellness, identity, financial literacy, housing, law, life skills development, crisis counseling, emergency assistance and more.
Every year, nearly 1,000 18-year-old Torontonians face independent living after a stint in the youth protection system. They are nearly 200 times more likely to be homeless than their peers.
