Identity Capital Intervention (Coach + Co-designed Leadership Guide)
Young people randomized to the intervention group will engage in a co-designed leadership guide with their assigned coach. The co-designed leadership guide contains 12 chapters with the overarching aim of enhancing identity capital along with providing strategies to achieve participant-identified goals. Each chapter contains four activities (e.g., self-reflection exercise or listening to a podcast). Ideally, youth will complete one chapter every month. Each young person in this group will meet individually with their coach every two weeks and with a larger group of 10 youth participants and their coach every month.
Monthly Rent Subsidies
All study participants will receive a monthly rent subsidy ($800 for those living in Toronto; $700 for those living in St. Catharine's or Hamilton due to differences in cost of living) for 12 months.
