The Estevan Public Youth Centre (EPYC) is a non-profit, registered charity that exists to connect, engage, and empower youth in Estevan and area. Our Vision is to be the place in our community where youth explore their passion, purpose, and potential.

EPYC is an accessible, inclusive space for all youth in grades 7-12. Programming is offered for free to limit as many barriers to access as possible. Additionally, EPYC offers snacks and nutritional food items during programming so that youth always have access to healthy foods. The programming offered by EPYC is unique to other programming in Estevan because it is available outside of typical business hours. Having programming options available to youth in the evenings is essential for those who are not involved in organized activities, have limited friendships, or are looking to find solace outside of the family home.

EPYC has focused on activities that encourage physical activity, healthy habits, art and culture, socialization and cooperation for the youth. A main focus of EPYC’s programming is to have the space open for “drop-ins” by the youth. Drop-in hours are in the evenings and on weekends, with expanded hours during the summer month. Estevan has limited gathering spaces for youth open late on Fridays and Saturdays, and EPYC is a safe space to come for socialization and a program.
