Your Voice Matters — Youth Chat

What youth are saying…

“ I haven’t had access to good mental health care. The cost is too high and there is no cultural sensitivity.”

— CALD youth via MYAN report
“ There isn’t enough counselling on campus and it’s not culturally responsive. It leads to distrust because no-one responds to my needs.”

— CALD youth via MYAN report
“ I feel the burden of a broken system.”
