Endaayaang: the importance of “Indigenizing” housing first for youth
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This article explores Endaayaang, which means a safe place where the heart and spirit feel at home, an Indigenous Housing First for Youth programme, located in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. The programme is informed by Elders, Traditional Knowledge Holders, Indigenous youth and Indigenous frontline workers and is grounded in Indigenous knowledges and worldviews. The programme helps unhoused Indigenous youth secure, safe and affordable housing, without preconditions. A unique aspect of this programme is creating opportunities for Indigenous youth to (re)connect to their Indigenous identity and culture. This includes providing access to Elders, ceremony and Indigenous teachings to help them find their way home. This research highlights the integral role of helping Indigenous youth (re)connect with their Indigenous identity and the importance of integrating ceremony, and Indigenous principles into Indigenous Housing First for youth programming. We also present an argument about the importance of diversifying and indigenizing Housing First for Youth in Canada to meet the specific needs of Indigenous and other marginalized and racialized populations accessing programming.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
