What YPS Offers:

  • Case Management Support: YPS can connect young people with the resources and services they need to thrive. Our team will work alongside other child and youth safety partnerships in the region to ensure everyone gets the right support.
  • Focus on the Fun: YPS will develop engaging micro projects that are fun, relevant, and meaningful for young people, especially those who might be facing challenges.
  • Building Strong Teams: YPS will also support our Youth, Sport and Recreation (YSR) and Community Safety Patrol (CSP) teams, helping them work even better together to assist young people.

Here's how you can be involved:

  • Know someone who needs help? If you know a young person who could benefit from YPS support, you can refer them directly through our online form: Youth Projects and Support Referral Form.
  • Have information to share? YPS works best when we have all the information we need. If you work with young people or have insights that could be helpful, please don't hesitate to reach out!
