**IMPORTANT UPDATE**

Hello Youthspacers!

We're writing to let you know of some upcoming changes with Youthspace in the coming months. As of June 30, 2010, we will be unable to provide chat service over the summer months but will return in the fall (date to be determined). However, the forum and e-counselling will still be active and we encourage you to use both as you need support! Unfortunately we need to put the service on hold and reevaluate in September as we have suffered major cuts to our funding. We love connecting with you so we'll do our best to find a home for Youthspace and keep you in the loop of our goings-on! If you're looking for another wonderful chat service over the summer, check out our friends from The Crisis Intervention & Suicide Prevention Centre of British Columbia at www.youthinbc.com!

We appreciate that this change may leave some of you feeling alone and unsupported over the summer and we want to do our very best to support you in the meantime, as well as plan for ways to stay connected with our other services or services in your community during our chat hiatus. So, keep checking our chat calendar for available times - we look forward to staying connected with you!

Take good care,

The Support Team

Youthspace.ca is a safe space you can reach out to when you're going through a tough time in your life. You can chat privately with a trained volunteer, e-mail a youth counsellor, or post on our discussion forum about anything on your mind.

We'll chat about stress, relationships, school, suicide, abuse, or anything else that you would like to talk about. We won't give advice but can help you explore your options. We're a short-term service to help you through a tough time. We're here to help you identify supports in your life, and to guide you as you build long-term strategies for dealing with stress and problems. Check out our About Us and Terms of Use pages to learn more about the site.

We look forward to hearing from you! Read below to see our available chat times and what other youth are talking about in the forums! :)
