There are nearly 200 homeless youth in Saint John. A working working group that includes representatives from youth-serving organizations and area churches is currently working on establishing an emergency housing facility to complement and strengthen existing housing and support services for homeless youth. The Saint John Youth House project is an initiative of the Greater Saint John Homelessness Steering Committee. Hemmings House, a local TV and film production company, created the following public awareness video about youth homelessness in Saint John.
