Inner City Youth - Negan Tepeh

Negan Tepeh means look towards the future in Cree. This program was established to address the problems faced by Edmontons Indigenous Youth as they struggle to break the cycle of poverty, abuse, addictions, lack of employable skills, dysfunctional habits and long term unemployment.

The problems faced by the youth are a result of early socialization and have developed as a response to their environment. These problems have deep roots and are not addressed in a series of workshops via drop-in programs. Our holistic programming provides youth with basic needs such as bus tickets, breakfast, lunch and for a smaller group supper. We also provide counselling, legal support, Indigenous role models, one on one and small group counselling, addictions services, suicide prevention, visits by public health nurses, parenting programs, housing and financial referrals, financial literacy and a bridge to Inner City High School.
