Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for teenagers.

WHY YOUTH UNLIMITED?
93% of boys are exposed to Internet pornography before the age of 18
In the past decade, there was a 60% increase in youth hospitalizations for mental health concerns.
51% of teen girls say they feel pressure to take and send explicit photos of themselves
There are 50,000 at risk youth in Edmonton
*At risk youth are adolescents who are less likely to transition successfully into adulthood and achieve economic self-sufficiency. They often lack the ability to become a positive and contributing member of society and are prone to a life of crime.
These students require temporary or ongoing intervention in order to succeed academically and otherwise.
Prevention or Intervention?
This does not have to be their story.
Youth Unlimited's vision is to see every vulnerable young person explore their potential, understand their worth, and discover hope.
Our mission is to invest in the lives of youth by providing holistic care, mentoring relationships, safe communities, and
opportunities to give back.
