Tremplin 16-30 de Sherbrooke

What Tremplin 16-30 de Sherbrooke does

Tremplin 16-30 de Sherbrooke is a non-profit community organization (OBNL – organisme d'action communautaire autonome) founded in 2002 in Sherbrooke, Quebec, that delivers integrated housing and community support services to youth aged 16-30 at risk of or experiencing homelessness. Its core service portfolio comprises residential support at 95 rue Wellington Sud (23 social housing units managed since 2002 in collaboration with OMHS), the newly inaugurated Le Milieu resource at Maison Jean-Maurice (19 additional affordable studios launched June 17, 2026 in partnership with La Source-Soleil and Habitations l'Équerre), and a multifunctional hall used for community events, exhibitions, and rentals. The organization operates a social art program that includes Ruches d'art (art hives), Social Art Residencies with Bishop's University ArtLab, the annual Exprime-toi! pour la santé performance series co-produced with Neurosciences Sherbrooke, and the Prix révélation du Tremplin award for emerging artists aged 16-30.

The business model is grant-and-donation funded rather than technology-driven. Revenue streams include federal subsidies (Initiative fédérale de lutte contre l'itinérance, Vers un chez-soi), provincial funding (Secrétariat à la jeunesse du Québec), local health authority funding (CIUSSS de l'Estrie - CHUS), municipal support (Ville de Sherbrooke), individual donations via the Zeffy platform, membership fees ($60/year for residents, free for active members), and facility rental income from the multifunctional hall (capacity 130 standing/95 seated). There is no proprietary technology platform; the organization's "product" is the delivery of human services and physical community space. Programs are free or donation-based; the organization follows an autonomous community action governance model with an elected Board of Directors.

The organization's go-to-market is community-led, relying on referrals through a dense local partnership network (CIUSSS, ROC de l'Estrie, Tables itinérance/jeunesse/pauvreté, Bishop's University, Université de Sherbrooke, Actions interculturelles de l'Estrie, Ô Cirque) and direct outreach to at-risk youth in the Estrie region. Its four intervention axes (contact with arts and culture, social mixing, healthy lifestyle habits, and contact with nature) frame a holistic support model that differentiates it from purely residential or shelter-based providers in the Sherbrooke ecosystem.
