Thanks to the staff at the Consumption and Treatment Site for providing CPR training to our youth. Just one more thing we'll lose if the CTS ends up closing. #lifesaver #consumptionandtreatment #CPRTraining #ygk

There are moments in life that quietly redefine us—brief flashes where, even for a second, we can see beyond the hurt, the trauma, and the isolation we’ve carried. In those moments, possibility comes into focus, and yes, even hope.
Earlier this week, one of our longest-standing clients was given a rare, life changing opportunity to step into the world of the trades. The significance of this cannot be overstated. This single experience has the potential to open doors that once felt out of reach. It’s moments like these that fuel us, reminding us why we do this work and giving us the energy to continue guiding our youth toward their next steps in success. A huge shoutout to the @summitsistersroofing for making this happen. #trades #future #ygk #Resilience

What a pleasant surprise this past Friday when the amazing folks from the @rclbranch560 presented us with a cheque in the amount of $1000 towards our #kidscantwait initiative in support of our prevention programs. This cheque and these funds, when viewed through the lens of prevention, has a value for us in the amount of $10,000. We can't thank you enough for your support and all that you do for our community.
