Culture is Healing: Jackbox Games Night

Culture is Healing is a monthly event for and by Indigenous youth. During these events, we come together to share cultural teachings and knowledge, and are able to provide a safer space where we can have discussions on topics such as holistic well-being, harm reduction, sexuality, sexual health, HIV, and Hep C. It is a space for Indigenous youth to gather and be in community with one another. This is a gender affirming space, and we welcome Indigenous youth with all identities to share our space for Culture is Healing.

With the Pandemic once again sending everyone to their homes, we want to have a fun social night for our community! Come join us on Zoom for two hours of Jackbox games!

We will be providing food in the form of delivery app gift certificates for participants, as well as submitting their names to our Yúusnewas game night raffle, which will be drawn close to the end of the night!

Accessibility

The event will be held over Zoom, an online video meeting platform. Participants will need access to a device with a screen, sound, mic and internet capabilities like a smartphone, tablet, laptop or desktop to participate.

The event will be facilitated by YouthCO peer facilitators. The private meeting link will only be provided to confirmed participants.

This event is FREE and open to Indigenous youth ages 15-29 years old.

Land Acknowledgement

YouthCO events take place on traditional, unceded territories of various First Nations in what is now colonially referred to as ‘British Columbia’. We hold this fact in our hearts and actions throughout our work at Yúusnewas. Our team is committed to an ongoing process of learning what it means to do work on this land in a way that brings us closer to Indigenous Sovereignty.
