Indigenous youth across Canada face a myriad of mental health challenges. From the shadows of historical trauma to the contemporary issues of today, our young people need support that is not only effective but culturally appropriate and empowering. That's where "Healing Our Youth" steps in.

"Finding Our Power Together" is proud to introduce our Canada Helps campaign, "Healing Our Youth." This initiative is aimed at raising $25,000 to bring forth a multi-faceted approach in supporting the mental health and well-being of Indigenous youth from coast to coast.

Here's how the funds will be used:

1. Mental Health Counseling: Personalized and culturally sensitive one-on-one counseling sessions to assist Indigenous youth in navigating personal and community challenges. The therapeutic space is crucial for self-expression, reflection, and healing.

2. Psychoeducation: Through group sessions, we will empower Indigenous youth with knowledge about mental health, providing them with tools and strategies to understand and manage their emotions, making them resilient for the future.

3. Cultural Programming: Our roots hold immense power. By reintroducing and strengthening cultural connections, we provide our youth with a sense of belonging and identity. This encompasses on-the-land ceremonies, storytelling, traditional crafts, and more.

4. General Operations: A part of the funds will also support our daily operations, ensuring that we can reach as many Indigenous youth as possible and maintain the quality and breadth of our services.

Our goal isn't just to provide immediate relief but to build foundations for enduring mental wellness. Every donation, big or small, is a step closer to a brighter, more hopeful future for our Indigenous youth. Let's come together as a community and nation, for the mental well-being and flourishing of our young people is paramount to our shared future.

Support the "Healing Our Youth" campaign today and be part of a transformative journey.
