Nexus Youth Services - For You. With You.

Since 1985, Nexus Youth Services has offered counselling and supports to youth ages 14 to 24 who live in the Region of Peel and who may be experiencing a range of social, emotional, or behavioural difficulties.

 

Our programs utilize youth engagement strategies to ensure that youth are meaningfully involved in planning, implementing and evaluating services that have a direct impact on their youth community. As part of this endeavour, we recently launched a Facebook page and Twitter account to help us reach out to the youth in our community. 

Our Mission

Nexus Youth Services creates opportunities for youth by providing high quality services that are inclusive and responsive to the needs and voices of youth.

 

Nexus Youth Services has two main programs: our Community Counselling Program and Nexus Youth Centre.

To access Nexus Youth Centre, call 905-566-1883 or visit our new website NexusYouth.ca

 

To access the Community Counselling Program, call Mental Health Services for Children and Youth (Centralized Intake) at 905-451-4655. Intake hours are 9:30 to 4:30, Monday to Friday. Outside these hours, callers can leave a message and a worker will call them back the next working day. For youth younger than age 16, either the youth or a parent/caregiver can call Mental Health Services for Children and Youth (Centralized Intake). For youth age 16 or older, the youth must make the call to complete the intake process.

Nexus Youth Services is a not-for-profit community agency and a charity. Our charitable business number is 13039 7631 RR0001.

The majority of funding for our programs at Nexus Youth Services comes from:

• United Way of Peel Region,
• Ministry of Children and Youth Services (Government of Ontario),
• Regional Municipality of Peel,
• The Ontario Trillium Foundation, and
• City of Mississauga.

Donations to Nexus Youth Services from people and companies in our community also help us meet the needs of youth. We thank all our donors for their generous support. While we cannot list everyone who supports Nexus Youth Services, we would like to mention these funders that have provided grants or in-kind support to Nexus Youth Centre:

• F.K. Morrow Foundation,
• The Home Depot,
• Hustler’s Young Men’s Bible Class Foundation,
• IBM Canada,
• McKesson Foundation/McKesson Canada,
• PricewaterhouseCoopers Canada Foundation,
• Red Lobster (790 Burnhamthorpe Rd. location in Mississauga), and
• Starbucks Coffee Company.

Nexus Youth Services has a strategic alliance with Peel Children’s Centre. Under this arrangement, the two agencies have a common Board of Directors and share administrative services. This arrangement reduces Nexus Youth Services’ overhead costs and allows the two agencies to provide a broader range of services than either agency could provide on its own.
