Middleton, Canada Portal Youth Outreach Association Full time

**About Us**

The Portal Youth Outreach Association provides advocacy and outreach support to youth at risk in the Annapolis Valley. Our Vision is that the Annapolis Valley would be a place where all youth have a safe, supportive, and loving home. We work towards that vision by reducing the number of youth experiencing homelessness through a collaborative community approach with other youth serving organizations and making access to services simple, relational and timely.

We strive to provide support for youth and families from a strengths-based and relationship-based perspective. Given that many youth face multiple and complex challenges, working from a trauma informed lens is critical. Employees need to come prepared with this training and perspective or participate in such training. Our work is youth-centered and youth-engaged with the hope that youth have choice in the direction of their lives.
