Finding Hope
A national action plan focused on creating capacity for Kids Help Phone to better connect with Indigenous youth.
Finding Hope is led, co-created and governed by an Indigenous Advisory Council, connecting First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities with Indigenous volunteers and counsellors.
Program Goal: 1 million virtual counselling and crisis response sessions by 2025.
RiseUp
RiseUp is Canada’s only 24/7, bilingual e-mental health support for Black youth.

Program Goal: Grow to 60,000 phone & text conversations by 2025.
