WELCOME TO THE
WINDSOR RESIDENCE FOR yOUNG mEN
The Windsor Residence for Young Men (WRYM) supports youth ages 16-24 as they leave homelessness behind to build new lives. WRYM provides a supportive functional family atmosphere, delivers individual counselling, and teaches basic life skills. WRYM helps youth experiencing homelessness integrate into the community and reconnect with extended family or independent living, as well as education and employment. We support active citizenship, not dependence, and we follow up with our residents as they become active citizens. We work together to end homelessness.

We Won 1 of 10 Canada-Wide Grants from Equitable Bank and Concentra!
Thanks to Motor City Community Credit Union, who championed WRYM with an application to Equitable Bank and Concentra's national "Empowering Your Community" grant stream, we are proud to announce that we have received $10,000 of funding for our Youth Independence Program!
This means we can provide 6 months (or 2 semesters) worth of life-skill teaching to youth experiencing homelessness, in our nationally recognized Youth Independence Program!
We cannot emphasize enough what it means to have local institutions like Motor City Community Credit Union advocate for WRYM with national partners like Equitable Bank and Concentra, and how important these lessons are to the youth we assist.
