The Youth Health Clinic (YHC) provides accessible healthcare services for youth in a safe, welcoming, and youth-friendly environment. The clinic is a partnership between Sandy Hill Community Health Centre and Youth Services Bureau, and is located at the Youth Services Bureau building at 147 Besserer Street. Youth can walk in and meet with a nurse practitioner for care related to minor injuries, illnesses, sexual health, mental health concerns, and other health needs. The clinic also helps connect youth to additional medical and community supports when needed. The clinic offers a convenient alternative to visiting an emergency department for non-urgent health concerns.
