Taking Risks to Fill the Gaps
Toronto lacks adequate mental health
and addiction services for transitional age
youth (16 to 26). These youth too often are
dropped from the system and fall through
the huge gaps that exist between child
and adult mental health and addictions
support services. Over the past year LOFT’s
Youth Services have been extensively reorganized
to build on the strength of our
youth housing and support work. We have
also launched a new Transitional Age Youth
Program to expand our support services
and further contribute to filling the gaps
that have plagued the system – and the
youth we serve - for so long.
The Ingles Enhancement Project
As Toronto’s only post-treatment residential
program for young women recovering from
serious addiction, Ingles House already
fills a significant service gap. This past
year, a group of donors took a risk on us,
contributing the money we needed to reach
many more young women with even more
effective programs and services.
Special thanks to Doug McGregor, who has
so effectively championed the Ingles cause.
