Support Services
Edmonton youth come to iHuman through a number of agencies, prisons, programs, and other referrals, as well as through iHuman’s outreach workers. Some of the youth use iHuman’s formal programs (e.g., art, Woven Journey). Many access iHuman for its social services (e.g., suicide prevention). Engaged at every level, iHuman’s outreach team works with numerous other service providers and programs, and even develops programs outside of iHuman’s scope (e.g., Curriculum Group).
The outreach team’s time is mainly spent helping youth access primary care in terms of medical and dental, housing, food, and other basic needs. From intake to addiction treatment, the team provides youth with experienced support, medical and dental care, and connections to various social services.
