Youth Programs
Our youth programs focus on enhancing protective factors, promoting education, re-establishing cultural identity, reducing high-risk behaviors, and increasing the circles of support for youth. We approach youth resiliency and wellness with a focus on cultural sensitivity and health promotion, removing barriers to the social determinants of health for immigrant, refugee, Canadian youth.
Issamba youth programs endeavor to create opportunities for access and full participation of youth from the African descent community in all aspects of society.
