Broadway Youth Resource Centre

Open since 1999, Broadway Youth Resource Centre (BYRC) is an integrated one-stop centre that provides a wide range of social, health, education, employment and life skills services to homeless and at-risk youth between the ages of 12 and 24.

 

PROGRAM FEATURES

Aboriginal Youth Victim Support -provides information, emotional support and cultural connection. Primary goal of the program is to offer support to youth who have been victims of crime and trauma in all aspects of the justice system.

Housing -Assisting youth with the task of seeking, finding and securing safe and affordable accommodation.

Resource Room -Provides a walk-in, youth friendly environment to allow youth (ages 12-24) to access a range of referral and information services.  This is also an opportunity to check out the other services available at the centre and self identify services that would be helpful.

Transition -The program works with youth referred by MCFD, providing individual outreach support and councelling, group work/peer support, relationship councelling, and increasing community connectedness to help in developing a network of supports in the community.

Vietnamese Youth Development Program -Supporting Vietnamese youth and their families and bridging youth to community resources.  The goals of this program include recognizing and celebrating positive Vietnamese youth activities and providing assistance for Vietnamese youth in gaining access to social, recreational, counselling support and employment resources in the city.

Youth Advisory Group -All youth that use the centre are encouraged to participate in our on-going volunteer program.  Monthly advisory meetings held at the centre are designed to give youth opportunities to share their ideas, strengths and visions.  Guest speakers, community members and presenters are among those who attend Youth Advisory meetings.

Volunteer Program (Adult) -We offer a variety of volunteer positions, a training package, professional development opportunities, and on-going support for our volunteers.  Our coordinator is fluent in Spanish and welcomes Spanish speaking volunteers and new immigrants who want to make a difference in our community.

Volunteer Program (Youth)-This award winning program provides opportunities that assist youth aged 13-24 in becoming connected to their community and culture. Through volunteer service youth develop positive self esteems, build positive peer supports, and sense of belonging. Youth are provided with non-cash honorariums to support food, clothing, education, or recreation.
