Housing Vision

Motivated by faith in Jesus, Regina Youth For Christ’s mandate is to serve youth, regardless of their religion, race, ethnicity, or gender, as a demonstration of God’s unconditional love for all people.

Honouring the culture of the youth we serve is important to creating a trusting environment where youth feel safe and loved. We recognize that a significant number of the youth that we are privileged to serve are First Nations and therefore, we are intentional in creating space for cultural expression in our housing program.

Our housing programs use a holistic and individualized approach in serving our youth while providing them with safety, security, and stability. Through that, we provide individualized opportunities to gain life skills, build relationships and work on their family involvement. Through these shared experiences our hope is that they see their true potential!
