| :: Services The ultimate goal of Alternate Shelter Society’s programs and services is to reintegrate children and youth back into their communities and, where appropriate, with their families. In keeping with this goal, Alternate Shelter Society has offered and continues to offer the following programs and services: We understand that building competence and self worth is a lengthy process that requires encouragement in different ways over time, so we endeavour to provide a sense of continuity and context in all our interactions with the young people in our care. We believe that the single most important aspect of our mandate is our commitment to increasing a young person’s control over all aspects of their life. A primary principle that Alternate Shelter Society fosters is that each youth is an individual. Individualized plans of care are focused on each youth's needs. This is vastly different for each individual and therefore the results will also vary.
