BLACK YOUTH HELPLINE

Our Vision: Productive futures for Canada's Children & Youth. Our mission is to inspire and empower Canada's children and youth to improve their lives and the world around them. What's the Black Youth Helpline's KPI? Say or do 1 thing that starts the process for 1 youth to get to a better, happier place.

The Black Youth Helpline (BYH) is a not-for-profit, registered charitable organization governed by a Board of Directors. The organization serves ALL youth and specifically responds to the need for a Black youth specific service, resourced to promote access to culturally appropriate supports for youth, families, schools and other youth serving institutions.

The organization’s Stay-in-School program and support services is now Canada-wide and focuses on helping youth remain and succeed in schools and in community life.

Intervening early to help address challenges faced by youth and helping vulnerable children remain and succeed in school, results in the best chance for youth to experience successful futures. This is the focus of the Black Youth Helpline.
