iHuman Youth Society

The iHuman Youth Society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of high-risk youth through arts programs, mentorship, and holistic support services. Registered with the Canada Revenue Agency as a charity, its business registration number is 873223168RR0001.

History and Mission

Established in 1997, iHuman has evolved from its roots in artistic mentorship to become a comprehensive sanctuary for youth aged 12-24 in Edmonton and surrounding areas. The organization's mission focuses on acknowledging and nurturing the innate talents of marginalized youth, employing the arts as a catalyst for growth, inclusion, and acceptance. iHuman aims to empower youth with the skills and confidence needed to navigate complex systems such as housing, transportation, mental health services, and the justice system[1][2][5].

Programs and Services

iHuman offers a variety of programs and services designed to address the diverse needs of at-risk youth:

  • Wrap-around Services: These include support for basic needs such as food, clothing, and transportation, along with facilitation of access to housing and medical care.
  • Artistic Mentorship and Arts Programming: iHuman provides diverse arts programs, focusing on creative expression as a tool for personal development and healing. The organization operates art studios where young artists can explore their creativity under mentorship.
  • Mental Health Support: Through its LiNKS Mental Health Clinic, iHuman offers trauma-informed care and arts-focused mental health services.
  • Specialized Programs:
    • Woven Journey: Tailored support for young Indigenous mothers, addressing intergenerational trauma and colonization impacts.
    • Soul Food Kitchen: Nourishing meals are prepared daily to ensure youth receive nutritious food.

Impact and Outreach

iHuman annually serves over 500 youth in the Edmonton area, with Aboriginal and LGBTQ2S+ youth making up a significant portion of their clientele. The organization is committed to fostering positive personal development and social change through innovative arts-based programming[4][5]. iHuman's approach emphasizes building trust and bridging the gaps in youth support systems, helping hundreds of youths overcome high-risk lifestyles and become healthy community members[4].

Events and Fundraising

iHuman hosts events such as the upcoming "Canvas for Hope" luncheon to raise funds and awareness for its mission to support marginalized youth in Edmonton[1].
