The Idea

Our team of youth mental health therapists want to support teens without access to mental health supports in Alberta. 

With cuts to school funding and with many families not having access to private insurance plans, many teens in Alberta do not have access to mental health support.

We want to be able to offer 500 hours of FREE 1:1 individual, specialized support for teen mental health throughout Alberta, either through in person or virtual services.

We have served over 10,000 teens and families in Alberta during the past 6 years and want to expand our reach to include more teens in rural, under-served communities.  

Who Will Benefit?

Teens and young adults ages 12-25 years old in rural and northern Alberta will be able to access virtual services with our online system, while urban youth can access services in person in the Edmonton and area. 

Teens and young adults who will benefit:

- Teens without access to a school counsellor

- LGBTQ2S+ youth in Alberta

- Low income teens and families

- Young adults who are struggling with their mental health

- Post-secondary students on a wait list for support

- Parents of teens who are struggling to help their child
