We Focus on What Matters to Youth & Encourage Individual Personal Growth

Employment

Employment services are offered to vulnerable youth between the ages of 16 and 29. The primary goal is to help them develop the necessary vocational skills to not only find jobs, but be able to retain those jobs.

Education

OCH offers an in-house alternative education program in partnership with the Ottawa Catholic District School Board. Youth are provided with the opportunity to work at their pace, learn the way that they need to and receive the guidance of a social support worker to help address barriers to their education.

Support Centre

The support centre is the central hub of OCH where vulnerable youth can gain access to basic needs, crisis support, housing assistance, job search support and so much more. It is a "working" centre that other programs to get them started on the path to success.
