The 2SLGBTQ+ Youth Housing Toolkit was created to support organizations and groups in developing housing for queer youth. The Toolkit provides resources for every stage of development and is built from extensive research, evaluation, and input from a range of similar housing initiatives across North America. The Toolkit is seperated into six key areas: 1) Building a Foundation; 2) Designing your Program; 3) Staffing; 4) Intaking Youth; 5) Programming & Support Services; and 6) Documents & Resources. Users can navigate easily between the different sections depending on their housing model and stages of development.

The 2SLGBTQ+ Youth Housing Toolkit is a partnership between OUTSaskatoon, the Social Innovation Lab on Gender and Sexuality, and Psystem. The project is supported by grants from the Research-Junction Development Grant - a partnership between the University of Saskatchewan and the City of Saskatoon, a Partnership Development Grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, and the LGBTQ2 Community Capacity Fund from Women and Gender Equality Canada (WAGE).
