YouThrive:
This program is geared towards children and youth between the ages of 4 to 25 who have encountered racism in different parts of their lives such as school, work, social settings, etc. Our program defines racism as the experience of marginalization and/or oppression of Black, Indigenous, persons of colour based on characteristics such as skin colour, language, or racial/cultural identity. The aim is to provide mental wellness services to children and youth who have experienced discrimination based on race-related factors that affect their overall quality of life.
Please note that young persons between the ages of 4 to 15 years will have their referral directed to a YouThrive staff person at Lynwood Charlton Centre, while youth between the ages of 16 to 25 are directed to a YouThrive staff person at the Youth Wellness Centre.
