We are Home Horizon and the Barbara Weider House, working with youth at risk of homelessness in the Southern Georgian Bay Area.

Home Horizon creates a community where youth who are at risk of or experiencing homelessness are supported and empowered with the resources and skills to transition into adulthood. While you don’t typically see it, homelessness is a real issue in our area. We currently have 27 youth waiting for help from Home Horizon. Swipe left to see some of our results. The first step in dealing with youth facing homelessness is to help them find a safe roof over their head. This could be the Barbara Weider House or to help connect them with other housing service organizations in our community. The first priority is they need to be safe and inside for the night. In addition, we offer access to counselling and social and life skills programs to help our youth successfully rebuild their lives and transition to independent living and adulthood. They are provided with a range of support programs that will help them learn life skills, have positive relationships with peers and adults, and re-engage with school, employment training, and/or employment. The Barbara Weider House bridges the critical gap between emergency shelter and independent living for youth aged 16-24. Our services address the needs of youth in crisis and provide the support to help them master the tasks of adolescence as well as focus on their education and employment possibilities. The pandemic has non-profit organizations cancelling fundraising events and scrambling for new ways to raise funds... and we are no different. Our revenue shortfalls has our fundraising committee working hard to find new and creative ways to engage our community and to ignite people’s interest in supporting our youth.

First stop: THE ROARING TWENTIES. ✨

Think fringe, feathers, pearls, suspenders, bow ties and all-out Gatsby glamour.

Spirit of Collingwood is dancing through the decades — and we’re starting with a little 1920s costume inspo. 🥂
