Resilient Minds

The Resilient Minds project aims to fill the settlement and counselling service gap among Black and newcomer youth, by offering community-based, culturally safe support, trauma-informed prevention workshops, peer mentorship, data-driven early-intervention tools, and youth-friendly spaces. The Outreach & Program Support Assistant for the project will expand engagement
by updating contact lists for community partners, developing outreach materials, developing and then supporting communication campaigns, and assisting with workshop logistics, scheduling, and on-site coordination. Additionally, the Data & Evaluation Assistant will refine data collection tools, manage attendance, analyze survey data, and produce monthly summaries and analysis that support program learning and funder applications and reporting.
