Youth Outreach

Connecting with Island Youth

Our Youth Outreach staff connect with local youth to provide free, confidential, and community-based one-to-one support and information on healthy relationships and lifestyles. We work from a non-judgmental and harm-reduction approach. Our youth programs and services are a positive and supportive space for LGBTQ2SIA+ youth. 

Our Youth Outreach workers facilitate youth groups and summer camps, attend Teen Night Drop-Ins, and organize youth workshops and community education events throughout the year. We work towards ending youth sexual harm, harassment, and exploitation in our communities. We can help connect islanders with Foundry Comox Valley, Courtenay's youth hub for health and mental health, and other services and support. 

To reach our Youth Outreach worker, please call or text (250) 443-1658 or email Sara.
