Opportunities for Volunteer Hours for Teens in 2026! Program starts Jan. 30

We are hosting a new cohort of learners for the University of British Columbia pilot program, Agenda Gap. This will be our fourth year working with young people who will learn about their rights and abilities to create change to improve mental health of youth. Students will earn volunteer hours, gain confidence and make friends. Interested in applying? See the information below.

The Icelandic Prevention Model is being implemented in Mississauga.

Throughout the globe, the Icelandic Prevention Model (IPM) has been heralded as a sustainable solution to improve mental health and reduce substance use among youth.

The Dam and Erin Mills Connects are helping lead the implementation of IPM in Cooksville, Meadowvale and Erin Mills, thanks to the support of the Public Health Agency of Canada.
