The Northern Health Child & Youth Service Network has received funding from the Public Health Agency of Canada through its Youth Substance Use Prevention Program Stream 1: Incubator and Capacity Building Funding. The objective of this funding is to build capacity in communities across Canada to implement an upstream youth substance use prevention approach that follows the guiding principles and key steps of the Icelandic Prevention Model (IPM). We are very excited about working together with youth and community partners to secure a bright future for youth, starting with our first pilot site in northern BC, the Robson Valley.
Our vision is that every community in northern British Columbia will be a safe space where youth have opportunities to grow, learn and thrive. The purpose of this webpage is to build awareness about upstream prevention, share how the IPM is being adopted in northern BC, and provide updates from the pilot project in the Robson Valley.
