Our Vision
Head & Hands’ Youth Clinic envisions a world in which youth feel the freedom to be the primary decision-maker over their health and bodies. We believe that access to free, universal, and public health services is an essential, non-negotiable social right.
Our Approach
The Head & Hands Youth Clinic delivers healthcare and education to youth 12-25 years old. After the intake process, clients can be with the doctor for up to 45 minutes.
Our Mission
Head & Hands’ Youth Clinic does not believe in a one-size-fits-all response to participants’ needs. Instead, we aim to provide an alternative to healthcare approaches seen at the institutional level. The Youth Clinic approaches healthcare from a harm reductive, non-judgmental, and holistic perspective.
The program is targeted for youth facing complex social determinants of health and those who face barriers to accessing institutional healthcare. This can include a lack of health insurance and financial resources; undocumented or in flux immigration status; Black youth, Indigenous youth, youth of colour; queer, trans, and/or two-spirit youth; youth engaged in sex work; youth engaged in drug use; youth who have experienced sexual violence.
