NOT 2SLGBTQ SPECIFIC

The Timmins Youth Wellness Hub (TYWH) is a safe, inclusive and welcoming space for all youth aged 12-25 to access mental health, addictions and wellbeing services, resources and support. The TYWH is part of a network of Hubs, called Youth Wellness Hubs Ontario (YWHO). YWHO is an initiative that aims to bring the right services to youth and their families, at the right time and in the right place.

In September 2018, the Timmins Youth Wellness Hub was established to provide programs and services (in English and in French) that support the wellbeing of youth aged 12-25 in the community.

The Timmins Youth Wellness Hub hosts a monthly support group for 2SLGBTQ+ youth. Information about this is posted on their social media pages and website.

Previously known as Windsor-Essex Transgender & Allied Support or W.E Trans Support.
The mission of Trans Wellness Ontario is to enhance and sustain the health and well-being of transgender, gender queer, two spirit, gender non-binary, sexual diverse and gender and sexual questioning communities and their families, by providing activities, programs and services that create community; empower community members; provide essential resources; advocate for civil and human rights; and embrace, promote and support our cultural diversity.

THIS SERVICE IS NON-QUEER, TRANS & LGBTQ SPECIFIC

Youth Matters is designed to help youth aged 15 – 30 that are facing barriers to employment navigate the labour market and successfully transition into sustained employment. We support them through skills development, education, and meaningful work experiences. Services are currently delivered virtually.

In various community settings in North East and East London, the Youth Outreach Workers (YOW) work together with youth, ages 10-24 (aprx), to build their resiliency and skills. Workers build trust with youth, families, and the community, and support them to find appropriate programs and services. The YOW team enhances and promotes the development of community based services and leadership opportunities for young people in the community. This program is LGBTQ+ friendly and offers advocacy and support for LGBTQ youth.

We are a safe, welcoming space for youth ages 12 to 25 and their families across the Niagara Region looking to access support for mental health, substance use, peer support, education, employment, wellness, and more. All services are free of charge for youth in the Niagara Region, and services are available in-person and virtually.

The Queer Social drop in space runs monthly to meet and hangout with other members of the LGBTQ+ community, allies are welcome. See calendar for dates and times.
