The Youth in Care Program, Inclusive Futures

The Youth in Care Program is dedicated to supporting students who have experienced the Youth Protection System, ensuring they have the resources and community they need to succeed in higher education. 

Join us starting October 2024 for our bi-weekly drop-in sessions designed exclusively for Youth in Care. Held every other week, these sessions provide a supportive and non-structured environment where students can connect, share experiences, and receive support from mentors and program coordinators. Whether you're seeking academic guidance, career advice, or simply a space to socialize, our drop-ins are tailored to meet your needs. Come and spend an hour with us!
