What is inREACH?
inREACH is a federally-funded street gang prevention project in Waterloo Region (Ontario, Canada), involving several community partners, that helps youth between the ages of 13 to 24, who are actively involved with, associated with or may be thinking about joining a gang.
Better Opportunities are inREACH
Through one-on-one and/or group support, inREACH provides options and opportunities to youth who are looking to make a change. The caring and supportive staff offer assistance in the areas of mental health, substance use, education, employment, housing and family support.
inREACH also works within communities to provide positive alternatives for youth-at-risk through mentorship and recreation supports for youth in their own neighbourhoods.
Getting Started
Referrals can be made by police, agencies, schools, parents or youth themselves.
