This program is our Drop-in center, located in BorealisPark at the Haxton Center. The mission of this program is to provide youth with a safe, clean, and drug-free environment where they can interact and have fun. Our team of Youth Support Workers aims to build strong relationships with any youth who walk through our doors and provide them with the support they need as individuals to navigate their positive journey through life. The center is open 7 days a week, 362 days a year so that youth have a place to be, keeping them away from the negative elements of the streets. We provide both
structured and unstructured activities in the drop-in center, including Pool, Ping Pong, Gaming, Computer Access, Life Skills Workshops, Bingo Nights, Friday Night Food and Movies, Netflix, Apple
TV, Homework help, A Reading Corner, our Outstanding Program (Gay-Straight Alliance for Youth), Arts, Crafts, and much more. All activities are offered free of charge to all youth, regardless of the socio-economic status they face in our community. Aside from programming, JSYF offers a referral process to youth who need additional support and assistance to access other organizations that can provide support that is past what JSYF does. This way, JSYF can assure that youth are always provided with the services they need to become successful adults who will positively impact our community.
