Pairing youth with members of the senior community will reduce loneliness and isolation on a global scale.

Bringing these populations together will enable them to forge meaningful and lasting relationships. This valuable relationship will cultivate the engagement in activities such as reading, writing, and craft-making.

But most importantly, human interaction through conversation building vocabulary, confidence and joy.

A Youth Advocate Ambassador (Y.A.A.) is an individual that speaks on the behalf of the youth they are working with while giving life to the youth’s voice.

This is done by ensuring that youth maintain their human rights while aiding in skill development in all areas of life. With a focus on preventing the youth from experiencing a diminished self-esteem.

Valuing Inclusion and Belonging to Empowerment (V.I.B.E) is a program to bring a safe-space through round-table type conversation and support to the group and through expressive arts. It aims to foster open dialogue, encourage diverse viewpoints, and generate insights into the subject matter through life.

With a freedom of discussion of individual unique cultural experiences, challenges, and successes, all voices are heard, making them a valuable format for exploring complex issues and promoting collaborative learning.

Through shared understanding and empathy, VIBE fosters a sense of belonging, promote cultural pride, and offering resources to navigate specific cultural issues or conflicts. This program is open to all cultures who feel displaced.
