• Learn at Home: Students and their parents can access educational resources online to keep students learning and engaged during school closures.

 

• Kids Up Front has a variety of programming.

 

• Laptops and other electronic devices are being distributed as needed in partnership with boards of education. The government is working with telecommunication partners “to get technology to those that need it.” Students who require a ipad and/or internet access should contact their school principal via email.  The principals are working with the school boards to get these to the students.

 

• Rural Ottawa Youth Mental Health Collective:  The goal of the Rural Ottawa Youth Mental Health Collective (ROYMHC) is to help rural Ottawa youth feel supported if they need mental health help and making sure they know where to go for support if they need it. We know there are challenges with accessing mental health supports that are unique to rural Ottawa youth. Whether it's distance, transportation, not knowing what resources exist, or a lack of privacy / ability to access existing resources, we are listening to your concerns and working hard to ensure that you feel supported. The ROYMHC is a team of 13 partners invested in the mental wellbeing of rural Ottawa youth.
