Program description

The Youth Wellness Centre provides youth ages 12-29 access to the full range of services offered at WoodGreen including settlement, housing, employment, education, financial and cultural programming.

 

Youth can sign up for various wellness workshops and skill-building opportunities occurring throughout the year. Youth can also get connected with mental health services offered onsite on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 11-7PM through our partnership with the Toronto East Youth Wellness Hub.

 

Whatever it is that a youth finds themselves needing we will ensure that they get connected!

 

Youth Drop In Hours

 

Youth are welcome to attend our drop-in on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 3-7PM, where they can speak to a staff member and learn more information about our programs. The drop-in is a safe space for young people to hang out after school, grab a snack, meet friends, play games, and participate in different recreational activities. There is also a quiet space available for doing homework. Once a month we run special events like movie night, art night or host cultural celebrations.
