2018 Youth Homeless Count

The first-ever Youth Homeless Count in Metro Vancouver took place throughout the region from April 4 to 12, 2018. Anonymous surveys were conducted over a nine-day period at youth centres, high schools, shelters and other youth-serving organizations to better understand the homeless youth population.
