Serving Kings County, Annapolis County and West Hants.

The Portal Youth Outreach Programs serve youth 16 to 24 years old who have been, are at risk of, or are:

• Experiencing multiple risk factors across the social determinants of health including, but not limited to poverty, ability, social isolation, unstable housing / homelessness, family violence, sexual violence, substance abuse, emotional / mental health issues and intergenerational trauma.

• Impacted by discrimination (i.e., African Nova Scotian, Mi’kmaq / Indigenous, Acadian, 2SLGBTQ+, and immigrant / newcomers) and experiencing systemic, historical, and societal inequities, which exponentially compound the impact of the risk factors. If you are a youth contact us directly if you are a worker, referral forms can be found here. A referral form is preferred but not required, click here.
