Youth Empowerment and Family Strengthening Program
The Youth Empowerment and Family Strengthening (YEW) program provides 1:1 support for youth who are marginalized and/or facing multiple barriers. Staff offer personalized case management, referrals, and family support—working not only with the youth, but also helping to rebuild and strengthen relationships at home when possible. Youth are connected to Access Youth programs and to services offered by other organizations.
This program can help youth learn to manage:
- Anxiety/Depression
- Relationships
- Life Skills
- Substance use/Misuse
- Peer Pressure
- School Concerns
- Mentorship
- Trauma
The Youth Empowerment Program is funded by CKNW Kids’ Fund, and the Province of British Columbia.
