Hello Everyone,
Please find the replay of North End Matters at the link below.
The guests included Glenn Knockwood of the Kiptu Youth Program in the
North End and Megan Leslie, MP. The guests discussed the defunding of
the Kiptu Program and the significance of that program for not just
Aboriginal youth, but youth of diverse cultures.
The program offered an important perspective on the social
determinants of health and examined how the program played an
important role in giving youth a sense of belonging, a sense of
community, cultural knowledge and mentors, all of which impact health,
mental health and well-being. The Kiptu Program provided a kind of
buffer by supporting youth who face challenges around income
insecurity, poverty, incarceration, insecure housing and lack of
access to transportation.
