Home Base Youth Dorms

Phone: 867-766-4673

The Home Base Youth Dorms are located in downtown Yellowknife and offer  single rooms for youth ages 12 - 24. The Dorms are staffed 24/7, and youth are connected to a navigator, who works with them regularly to ensure they are reaching their goals. The Dorms are a transitional housing option for youth where staff support youth to reunify with their family when possible, or to support them to gain the life skills necessary to live independently or semi-independently.
