Summary

This pilot study gave 40 young people (ages 16-24) leaving homelessness a rent subsidy for 12 months. Half also received a coach and a guided workbook to build confidence and life skills. The goal was to see if this combined support is practical and helps with housing, school, or work. Results will guide future programs.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Rent subsidy plus identity capital coaching (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could point toward better ways to help young people leaving homelessness build stable, independent lives.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (40 participants) with no control group for the rent subsidy alone. Results may not apply to other regions or populations.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Eligible young people ages 16 - 24 years who have left homelessness within the past 12 months and are currently living or planning to live in market rent housing will be identified by the community partners. This age mandate was chosen because this is the age group served by the community partners. The investigators have chosen to target the first year of exiting homelessness because their collective experience has shown that this is a particularly precarious time for youth in terms of mental health challenges and risk of returning to homelessness. Inclusion Criteria: * Be able to provide free and informed consent. * Be able to understand English (intervention and data collection will be conducted in English). * Have experienced homelessness (e.g., all non-parental and unstable housing arrangements including shelter stays, couch surfing, and time-limited housing) in the past 12 months. * Be willing to actively participate in the intervention (co-designed leadership program + coach) if randomized to this arm. Exclusion Criteria: * In imminent danger of losing their housing and not able to utilize the rent subsidy to sustain market rent housing. * Currently receiving rent subsidies. * Enrolled in a program or study with similar features to the TYOH 2.0 intervention.
