The Roots House Youth Shelter offers daily drop-in services from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. - 8 p.m. for youth 16-24 years of age. Youth are welcome to and can access food, shower and laundry facilities, hygiene supplies, Wi-Fi, one-on-one staff support, referrals to community resources/ services, advocacy, harm reduction support, and education and employment support.

Pictou County Roots for Youth also offers a Community Cupboard, which is located at the Roots House Youth Shelter (122 Stellar Street, Stellarton, Nova Scotia, B0K 1S0). Youth 16-24 years of age, in need of this service, can access the Community Cupboard at any time to pick-up food, hygiene supplies, and other personal items! 

If you would like to donate items to the Community Cupboard, we welcome drop-offs at the Roots House Youth Shelter (122 Stellar Street, Stellarton, Nova Scotia, B0K 1S0). We accept non-perishables (e.g., canned and jarred items), bottled beverages, and boxed or packaged food/ snack items.

For any questions regarding the Community Cupboard, please phone (902) 695.2775 or email admin@pcrootsforyouth.ca.
