Breaking Barriers to Education: Eva’s Education Program Manual

Eva’s Education Program was created in 2014 to respond to the stated needs and desires of young people served by Eva’s. They recognized the importance of better education to improved employment, housing, and quality of life outcomes.

Housed at Eva’s Phoenix transitional housing and employment training facility, the Education Program facilitates reintegration of homeless youth with academic programs and assists them to plan toward their educational goals as they move toward living independently in the community.

This manual provides an overview of approaches and promising practices of Eva’s Education Program for youth experiencing or at-risk of homelessness. It was made possible through support from KPMG and the Vital Toronto Fund at the Toronto Foundation.
