Barnett House
Barnett House is a six-plex apartment building owned and managed by The John Howard Society of North Island in Campbell River. There are five units for youth ages 16 – 19, and an office for the program coordinator. Youth in the program have been homeless, at risk of homelessness, or are transitioning from MCFD care to living on their own. The youth collaborate with the program coordinator to develop goals and learn how to live independently.

2024 Program Outcomes
youth who were in need of transitional housing stayed at Barnett House this past year.
“Barnett House is a very helpful program for those who need it or want to learn to live on their own. It teaches you everything you need for the real world and has supports for anything you may think of.”
“This has been a very good learning experience for me, living alone for the first time and with your support.”
“I really appreciate the coordinator making the time and always encouraging me and helping me stay on track, and not judging, and having a safe space for me to cry, to laugh, and to feel my emotions.”
