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.

WRYM's Murder Mystery Dinner
WRYM held its first ever Murder Mystery Dinner on Friday, October 17, 2025, at the Rockstar Music Hall and Platinum Room. Proceeds from the event will directly strengthen WRYM's programs, supporting young men as they transition out of homelessness and rebuild their lives.
Special thank you to our sponsors, Great Beginnings and Mirm Autoworks as well as the participants and the volunteers who came out make this event a success. We also had the opportunity to show our staff and volunteers our appreciation for all they do. WRYM couldn't do what we do without all of you! |
