Resources, Connections and Ideas
This page contains resources that respond to the needs youth identified in the 2020 Youth to Youth Survey. This includes opportunities for youth to engage, resources for skills to transition to adulthood, safe spaces, maintaining mental health (vs. mental illness or crises), and resources for exploring the history of oppression and how we can take positive anti-racist action.
