Youth-Centered Safe Spaces

In 2023, the City of Regina consulted Aboriginal Consulting Services to engage youth and create an Implementation plan called ’Centering Our Youth.’ The focus of this plan is on the safety, belonging and wellness needs of youth, especially Indigenous youth who live in Regina’s North Central neighbourhood. One of the action items in this plan is to develop a 24/7 youth-serving safe space.

According to the ’Centering Our Youth’ Implementation plan, the safe space should be operational by March 2025. The intern will support the project team in the necessary engagement, environmental scan, and program planning work needed to implement the safe space.
