Support the youth under the care of the DYP

Neglected children have wounds to heal

Thousands of youth in the care of the DYP need your help. Please give them your support!

Negligence, violence and abandonment leave their mark, even if they’re not always visible. Youth in the care of the DYP carry great suffering and deep trauma. Their hardships prevent them from fully living out their childhood and developing like other young people.

We need you to help them heal their wounds and give them hope for a better future.

In Quebec, more than 40,000 young people are taken under the care of the DYP. Every year, there are more reports filed with the DYP than there are births. It’s a reality that reminds us that we need to act urgently!

The impact of your donations

The Fondation des jeunes de la DPJ is working relentlessly for the well-being of children and young adults who are the most vulnerable. We know that with strong support and the right tools, they can spread their wings and overcome the obstacles that prevent them from believing in a brighter future.

Bursaries, tutoring assistance, summer camp, soccer lessons, training programs tailored to their needs, transitional housing apartment, emotional support dog: by making a donation, you give youth in care the chance to flourish, gain self-confidence and to develop their full potential.

Thanks to your donations, young adults like Janis, Christin and Samuel are able to pursue their dream and a post-secondary education. Thanks to you, children who have gone through so much adversity get the personalized support they need to help them rebuild and flourish. And there are thousands of young people who need you.

In a neglected child’s journey through life, one caring person can make all the difference.
