Across Canada, about one in four youth are experiencing harm online, substance use can be as high as 85% among more vulnerable youth populations, and cases of online exploitation have risen by over 300% in recent years. At the same time, Black youth are often navigating additional systemic barriers that can increase their exposure to these risks.

Parents! Join us for a webinar focused on the challenges youth are navigating and learn what early warning signs to watch for.

ACCN was honoured to attend the Brilliancy and Resiliency Conference at University of Toronto Schools this past week.
Bringing together Black-identifying students from independent schools across the city, the day created space to connect, learn, celebrate, and build community in ways that felt both affirming and empowering. It was especially lovely to see so many of our youth in the Independent School Program, and each year we are always amazed by how much they have grown.
From meaningful conversations to powerful moments of reflection, it was inspiring to witness the brilliance and resilience of our youth in real time.
Thank you to UTS for creating such an impactful space 🖤
