Zero Ceiling is committed to ending youth homelessness in BC. For over twenty-five years, we’ve been helping young people facing homelessness have a healthy transition to adulthood. We provide stability, support, and opportunities so that young people can focus on personal growth. We believe every young person deserves the chance to become the best version of themselves.

Based in the unique mountain resort of Whistler, BC, we serve youth aged 16-27 from Metro Vancouver and the Sea to Sky Corridor. Our programs offer supportive housing, supportive employment, case management, life skills education, mental health supports, and outdoor recreation in a safe, supportive environment. We build strong relationships and support young people for as long as they need: just like a family.

THANK YOU!!! Thank you to everyone near and far who contributed to the success of Après For Change on Saturday, October 19, 2024. We had the most incredible time with everyone who showed up, dressed up, danced, and helped us raise money for the young people in our programs.

Thank you to all our sponsors, donors, artists, Vines & Spirits Wall donors, Live Auction donors, Silent Auction donors, volunteers, staff and the team at Dusty’s who provided us with the most fantastic evening.  Our community always shines through and reminds us how lucky we are to have so much support to make tomorrow a better place.

WHAT WE DO

 

Zero Ceiling’s programs are built on the latest evidence and over two decades’ of experience fighting youth homelessness in BC. We focus on providing individualized, flexible support and creating strong, supportive relationships that empower young people.

Work 2 Live is a supportive housing and employment program for young people aged 19-24 who are experiencing homelessness or unstable housing. We help participants gain the stability, skills, and support systems to have a healthy transition to adulthood.
The Adventure Sessions is an outdoor adventure day-camp for young people aged 16-24 experiencing or at risk of homelessness. We offer no-cost access to the mountains of Whistler, BC, for some of the most marginalized young people in our communities.

HOW TO HELP

We can’t end youth homelessness alone. Your support allows us to provide flexible, individualized services that empower young people to fully participate in our community. Our supporters change lives by donating, volunteering, and attending our community events.
