With over 27 years of experience providing unconditional love and absolute respect to youth experiencing homelessness, Covenant House Vancouver ( CHV ) makes a positive difference for at-risk youth across Western Canada.

The organization helps homeless, at-risk, and trafficked young people aged 16 to 24.
