ABOUT US
The Canadian Courage Project (“CCP”) was launched by two Sisters in May of 2020 that saw a gap in the current system both supporting homeless youth with animal companions and youth empowerment at the secondary level. The CCP's goal is to empower young people to strive for social impact, push boundaries in the workplace, support homeless youth, and offer services for one's animal companions.
The foundation of this organization is to increase the awareness of the United Nations 17 Sustainable development goals throughout workshops and offer support to youth transitioning into independent housing. With a mission to support the local community within the Greater Toronto Area all care kits essential are purchased from local vendors.
Additionally, our efforts extend towards racialized youth, those from low-income families, and from rural areas. Our mission of inclusion reaches out to members of marginalized communities and promotes wellness for all.
The Canadian Courage Project is partnered with YouthLink Shelter & Transition home, which works to support homeless youth in the Greater Toronto Area.
