The Carrier Sekani Family Services’ (CSFS) Sk’ai Zeh Yah Youth Centre received a $5,000 grant from the City of Prince George.
The grant will support two of the centre’s core programs, which are its Peer Recovery Group and men’s group.
Youth ages 16 to 29 are able to attend the drop-in centre, and welcomes individuals from all backgrounds, focusing on providing culturally safe, wrap-around supports for at-risk youth and young adults.
“We are deeply grateful to the City of Prince George for recognizing the importance of youth-led wellness and recovery programs.” said Kara Myers, Youth Services Supervisor.
“This grant will help us continue to empower young people with the tools, support, and activities needed to thrive.”
CSFS added the grant will support a variety of youth-led activities, including community outings including group lunches, park visits bowling, and pool to foster connection, healing, and personal growth.
