• The Answer To Youth Mental Health with Karen Young CEO United Way Calgary

  It was in the early 90's when Iceland was experiencing over 85% of their youth struggling with addiction, bullying, and at risk behaviours. The community and parents decided to rally together to DO SOMETHING about it and 10 years later, the number when lower than 10%. Read that again, and let that sink in. The community rallied together, made a plan, and solved an enormous social problem we are all seeking to solve right now in our neighbourhoods. Iceland reminds us that there is NO SOCIAL ISSUE community cannot solve. So my friends, it's on US to come together to figure this out. That's what has got me excited about this week's podcast/blog with my special guest, Karen Young, CEO of Calgary United Way.Listen in to hear what we are creating to bring change!
