TFN Youth Centre Looking for Workshop Leaders and Presenters

Timiskaming First Nation Youth Centre is inviting presenters, facilitators, and community members to help create workshops and programming for local youth.

The Youth Centre is currently looking for people with knowledge, life experience, creative talents, cultural teachings, or professional skills to lead workshops on topics ranging from wellness, leadership, cooking, entrepreneurship, and traditional teachings to media literacy, fitness, and healthy relationships.

Organizers say both professionals and community members are encouraged to apply, especially those passionate about helping youth build confidence, life skills, and connection within the community.

Anyone interested can submit a workshop or presentation proposal along with a quote for services to [email protected].

Programs like this can make a lasting impact because sometimes one conversation, skill, or mentor is enough to help point a young person in a completely different direction.
