About Us
Rooted in Community. Driven by Purpose.
Linc Youth Services Inc. provides residential and support services for children and youth who require out-of-home care — with an unwavering commitment to trauma-informed, culturally respectful practice.
Our Mission
Every Child Deserves Safety, Belonging, and a Future.
Linc Youth Services Inc was founded on a simple but powerful belief: that every child and youth, regardless of their circumstances, deserves to feel safe, valued, and supported. We exist to provide that foundation — through high-quality residential care, skilled professional support, and genuine human connection.
Our work sits at the intersection of child welfare, mental health, and community support. We partner with families, agencies, and communities to ensure that children and youth in out-of-home care receive the consistent, compassionate care they need to heal, grow, and thrive.
What We Stand For
Our Core Values
Safety First
Every decision we make starts with the physical and emotional safety of the children and youth in our care.
Trauma-Informed Practice
We understand the deep impact of adverse childhood experiences and design every interaction to promote healing and trust.
Cultural Respect
We honour the cultural identities, languages, and traditions of every child and family we serve — and actively reflect that in our staffing and practices.
Family Connection
We believe children thrive when family bonds are strengthened. Wherever safe and appropriate, we work to maintain and rebuild family connections.
Accountability
We hold ourselves to the highest standards of professional practice, transparency, and continuous improvement.
Collaboration
We work as partners — with families, agencies, schools, and communities — because no single organization can do this work alone.
What We Do
Residential Care and Community Support Under One Roof.
Linc provides a continuum of care for children and youth requiring out-of-home placements. From structured residential settings to community-based support services, our programs are designed to meet young people where they are and provide the stability they need to move forward.
Residential Care
Safe, structured, and nurturing residential placements for children and youth who require out-of-home care. Our homes are staffed by trained professionals committed to creating a genuine sense of belonging.
Therapeutic Support
On-site and community-based counselling, behaviour support, and therapeutic programming tailored to each young person's needs and trauma history.
Life Skills & Transition Support
Practical skills development and transition planning for youth preparing to move toward independence — including education, employment, housing, and community connection.
Family Engagement
Structured family visits, parent coaching, and reunification support to maintain and strengthen family bonds throughout a child's placement.
Our Commitment
Trauma-Informed. Culturally Respectful. Evidence-Based.
Our approach is not a checklist — it is a lived commitment embedded in how we hire, train, supervise, and support our staff. We invest in ongoing professional development, reflective supervision, and quality assurance to ensure that our practice remains grounded in the best available evidence and the lived experiences of the children and families we serve.
