Youth Advisory Council
TSF is a youth-centred organization. Following the direction set by youth in our community, our organization partners with mental health professionals and community organizations to affect meaningful change in Huron and Perth Counties.
The YAC meets bi-weekly in a hybrid model of in person and online meetings that occur in the evening. We require that our YAC attend and volunteer at our events as they are able and assist in content creation for our Instagram and TikTok accounts. In return youth gain volunteer hours, an honorarium if 80% of meetings are attended, resume building experiences and more!
