Our Services

The RAFT operates services throughout Niagara, all under a common vision of providing the youth with the resources and tools they need to lead independent and healthy lives.

We provide both preventative and reactive services to best suit the needs of the youth. For youth who have run out of options and have no other place to go we offer our Hostel Shelter.

The Hostel meets the immediate needs and provides resources to set youth on a new path towards independence and self-sufficiency. For other youth facing homelessness, we offer our Youth Reconnection Services.

Our Community Development Initiatives work to create healthy communities in an effort to prevent youth from needing emergency services in the future.

Our hope that through our services, youth can have their needs met and acquire the tools they need to lead a successful life.

What People Are Saying

The budgeting program is a great for helping people plan a budget for when they are living on their own. They take the time to listen to what kinds of things people need to put in a budget, and they explain how to spend within a specific budget, and save money by using coupons. They also showed us how to save for college! These guys are perfect.
