Building a safer, healthier social environment for youth to belong and thrive.
Planet Youth Nogojiwanong, brought to you by the Peterborough Youth Substance Use Prevention (PYSUP) initiative, is a community group rallying as one for positive social change.
Together, we can achieve our goal of improving the sense of connection and belonging and reducing substance use among youth in Nogojiwanong/Peterborough.
The work of PYSUP cannot be done without our community's involvement!
Youth, parents, and the community are all part of this work.
Together, we can positively impact our young people's social environments!
Planet Youth Nogojiwanong, brought to you by the Peterborough Youth Substance Use Prevention (PYSUP) Initiative, is a group of community partners who want all children and youth to thrive. We're building a safer, healthier social environment for them, where they feel a greater sense of belonging and connection.
​
The change won’t happen overnight. But we can work together, collect local data and implement youth-driven interventions.
​
We can build a Peterborough that empowers youth to live their best lives.

We don't just acknowledge this land; we seek to learn from it. In our work with youth, we commit to honouring Indigenous ways of knowing and being. We promise to protect the natural beauty of this region and to ensure that all youth—Indigenous and non-Indigenous—feel a deep sense of belonging to this land and to each other.
