Youth outreach program
The Youth Outreach Program – Here for You
Our Youth Outreach Program is free and open to all youth aged 12 to 19 living in the Slocan Valley. It’s designed to offer support in whatever way works best for you—whether you’re going through a tough time or just need someone to talk to.
We’re here for you if:
- You haven’t been to school for a while and could use some extra support
- You’re feeling overwhelmed or just need a listening ear
- You’re unsure how to access mental health or other professional services
- You need help applying for housing, jobs, or anything else
- Or you’re simply looking for someone to connect with
We’ll meet you where you’re at—literally and figuratively.
Whether that’s:
- Meeting you at school or picking you up from the bus stop
- Grabbing a snack or coffee at a café (on me!)
- Going for a walk and talking things through
- Hanging out somewhere you feel safe and comfortable
Even if you’re not sure if this program is right for you, feel free to reach out and ask. No pressure—just support.
