YOUTH SERVICES

Our youth services support young people transitioning into adulthood, offering mentoring, educational help, life skills, and career guidance. We use trauma- informed, strength- based, and culturally respectful methods, with a focus on helping Indigenous youth achieve their goals and overcome challenges. Many youth are struggling to make positive changes in their lives and are merely existing and surviving on a day-to-day basis. A youth worker will motivate them and encourage them to engage with life.
