collingwood youth centre
Youth mental health issues including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and suicide are on the rise in Canada.
Our programs provide a gateway to building resilience in youth so they have the tools to take on, and have victory over, challenges they face. In an effort to provide a happy, prosperous, well-balanced future for all children and youth, we have taken a leading role in developing and managing the Collingwood Youth Centre. We do this in partnership with The Town of Collingwood and The Environment Network.
