My Role at the YWC:
Hi! I am the Peer Support Worker for the YouThrive Stream. Using my experience as a racialized person living mental health concerns, I support BIPOC youth through their own wellness journeys. In my role, I help support you in navigating the healthcare system, building hope and advocate for your needs.
Like all of our Peer Support Workers, I help facilitate some of our groups at the YWC including the Hiking Group and Self-Compassion Group. I also run the YouThrive Instagram, participate in EDI work and act as a staff liaison for the Youth Council.
