Youth Program
The Tr’ondëk Hwëch’in Youth Centre exists to encourage healthy living and provide opportunities for positive youth development. The centre is the only facility available to youth ages 12-18 in Dawson and is open to all youth in the critical after-school period and evenings Mondays to Saturdays. The Youth Centre is currently located at 1076 Front Street. Construction is underway for a new Youth Centre, expected to be completed in 2021.
The THYC provides daily organized and drop-in programming to more than 84 registered youth. Our strategic vision is to create a safe and supportive environment that allows youth to explore and participate in issues of governance, education, employment, and wellness.
