TRANSFORMING ACCESS TO CARE

Foundry Services

Youth Peer Support Workers are young adults that bring their own experience with navigating the health and wellness systems within our community. Our Youth Peer Support Workers are here to welcome you to Foundry and can provide information about the services that are offered.

Our Youth Peer Supporter Workers are available to help support and connect young people to services within the community. Follow-up sessions can be made within a few days of your counselling appointment.

Our Family Peer Supporters provide emotional support, system navigation, information and resources based on their own lived experience of parenting a youth with mental health and/or substance use challenges. This appointment is currently bookable on the Foundry BC app.

We provide free, confidential information and education regarding sexuality, physical and mental health to young people ages 12 to 24. Services include diagnosing and treating injuries, illness, providing prescriptions, birth control options, emergency contraception, pregnancy testing and information, as well as testing and treatment for sexually transmitted infections (STIs). These services can be delivered by a variety of health professionals such as doctors, nurse practitioners and nurses. This appointment is currently bookable on the Foundry BC app.

The Physical and Sexual Healthcare clinic is currently accepting new patients for youth that do not have a primary care provider! The Physical and Sexual Healthcare team can provide on-going DROP-IN care for you until age 25.

Our youth and caregiver counselling services are here to support you with whatever is on your mind today, one session at a time. After a session, you and your counsellor will decide on the next steps to your care. You are welcome to use this service more than once, but we cannot guarantee you will have the same counsellor every time.

Counselling is also available to caregivers of youth who are between the ages of 12 to 24. We are happy to help you find ongoing therapy, psychiatry, or other services to fit your needs. This appointment is currently bookable on the Foundry BC app.
