Empowering youth, families, and communities
We provide treatment to youth dealing with complex mental health and behavioural challenges in a welcoming, supportive, and safe environment.
Help transform the lives of Ontario’s most vulnerable youth.
Support the most critical 2 to 5% of youth with complex mental health and behavioural needs from across the province of Ontario.
