Youth Advance
The Youth Advance | YA program is dedicated to supporting Black high school youth in building the skills and confidence they need to thrive socially, academically, and personally. Our mission is to build resilient young people who lead healthy, fulfilling lives.
Benefit from our support services
The program offers wraparound supports to increase academic achievement, reduce truancy, pursue post-secondary education and opportunities.
Tutoring
The academic supports will include computer-assisted instruction, homework assistance, and connecting youth to professional & volunteer tutors, and much more.
Mentorship
Long-term connections between the mentor and mentee will help the student succeed in school, get ready for college, and learn life and youth-leadership skills.
Family Support
Our Family Social Worker will adopt an African-centred approach with an understanding of how important the family support network is to the success of a Black youth.
Life Skills
Assist our youth in learning to communicate effectively, develop leadership and advocacy skills, build financial literacy and money management habits.
