COLUMBUS HOUSE (PEMBROKE) INC

Columbus House was formed in 1988, after a group of local businessmen and educators became concerned with students who were having difficulties living at home, but who had no other living options. Out of these discussions, Columbus House, a residential housing program for youth, was born. Supported and sponsored, in part, by the local Knights of Columbus, Columbus House allows youth the opportunity to pursue their education while learning independent living skills in a structured, supportive and safe environment. Columbus House opened its doors to young women in 1990, and to young men in November of that same year. To better serve the diverse needs of today's youth, the Young Parent Support Program (YPSP) was introduced in 1999, and continues to offer young mothers the opportunity to complete their Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) while their children are engaged in developmental programming on-site. Young families in rural areas are supported through outreach.
