Youth Ambassadors -

About

The Indigenous Youth Ambassadors is a council created to encourage and promote leadership

development, learning through mentorship and peer support for youth. The Indigenous Youth

Ambassadors participate in service-learning with volunteers, professionals, Elders and

community members to assist with professional and educational development opportunities,

college readiness and community support.

Indigenous Youth Ambassadors engage in meetings, events, activities, programs, and benefit by

learning, serving and engaging with a wide variety of people in public venues, classrooms,

and in the field.

Indigenous Youth Ambassadors will represent the GHF and youth council publicly, meet new friends and

family, and learn valuable meeting, work, and school related skills that will assist with

achieving new education, career and life goals. “Ée ix axahéen”, or “I believe in you”.
