Outreach workers connect with youth and young adults who are living on the streets or in other high-risk situations. The focus of outreach is to build trusting, professional relationships with young people while also attending to their basic needs. Outreach staff provide hygiene, first-aid, safer sex supplies, water, snacks, socks and cold weather gear directly to youth in need. Youth also receive immediate access to information, community resource referrals and direct crisis intervention.
