Tim speaks to Mason Falls and Justin lambert, they share their expiernce of staying in the youth shelter “Pauline’s Place and how they have found creativity and a way to express themselves through music, they hope to communicate this to other youth by starting a Street Youth band called “Invisible People” which they say best describes how they are looked upon by society.

The Shelter
Pauline’s Place Youth Shelter has 8 beds available for homeless youth (16-21 years old), until they find more permanent housing. The shelter is designed to be as muchlike a family enviroment as possible. The house is set up like a home with bedrooms, kitchen, family room and back yard. Youth may have to share a room depending upon the number of residents. The shelter is located in a central residential neighbourhood where bus routes are accessible.

Thank you to all the youth at Pauline’s House for inviting me and to Anne Penney for setting up the visit, your home is so friendly and what great young people and a modern outlook on life you all live by.
