Boost Wellness of Transitional Age Youth-Supporting the Health of those Most Affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic
This project will provide wrap-around support to approximately 1000 youth including newcomer and refugee youth and international students (aged 16-28 years) in Peel Region’s South Asian communities to support their mental and emotional health and address settlement challenges they face in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Working closely with established multi-disciplinary community partners, this proven model will be achieved through a culturally responsive mental health promotion curriculum for youth delivered through psychoeducational-social groups, Chai and Chat sessions and ‘circle of care’ support sessions for families to better equip them to support their youth dealing with mental/emotional health challenges during this pandemic.
Lead organization: Indus Community Services
Location: Peel Region, Ontario
