build a dignified space for youth to thrive
Together Phoenix staff, partners, youth, and our community will create a space where youth have dignified access to the resources they need to thrive.
Everything under one roof
Inclusive and accessible, this eco friendly and sustainable space will be a one-stop shop for youth seeking services and supports including a health clinic, arts studio, community kitchen, cultural space, education and employment centre, housing and so much more here in Kjipuktuk/Halifax.
Join us! Together we will create a space for youth and community
Youth connected to Phoenix share their hopes, dreams, their strengths, and needs with us. The housing, health care, and economic crises in Kjipuktuk/Halifax and beyond are affecting young people more than the adult population, negatively impacting their ability to move forward with the futures they want for themselves. Together we can create a real solution where youth can access the supports they need and deserve.
