Planet Youth Nogojiwanong Brought to you by PYSUP
Dedicated to preventing substance use harms among Peterborough's youth, we bring youth voices into the conversation to embrace their perspectives and offer customized solutions that address the root causes of their challenges and meet their specific needs.
The work of PYSUP cannot be done without the involvement of our community!​
Young people, parents and broader community members are all part of this work, and we look forward to bringing you all together to positively impact our young people's social environments!
The Peterborough Youth Substance Use Prevention (PYSUP) Initiative is committed to reducing substance use harms by implementing the Icelandic Prevention Model (IPM), which is recognized globally for its proven ability to improve youth mental health and lead to better future life outcomes.
Our goal is to support youth and prevent challenges before they arise through systemic change. We bring youth voices into the conversation to embrace their perspectives and offer customized solutions that address the root causes of their challenges and address their specific needs. We also engage community members in various prevention efforts to create a safer environment for youth in Peterborough.
