Since the start of the pandemic, and throughout the summer months, LOVE staff continued to connect with youth online and in person at socially distanced park meet ups. Maintaining these ties was essential, as staff were able to be there for youth through whatever they were facing, from the need to escape an unhealthy home environment, mental health issues and even self harm.
Working with researchers from McGill University, we will be taking time to reflect on what we have learned over these last few months with the goal of improving our programming as we move forward.
Stay tuned!
