Camp THRIVE

Indigenous-serving program

Tasiutigiit Association

Non-Indigenous organization

In the Summer of 2022, Destiny Gregoire created camp Thrive as a pilot project in partnership with Tasiutigiit, Batshaw Youth and Familiy Services, and the Montreal Indigenous Community NETWORK. Destiny Gregoire is an Innu student at McGill University. She is currently completing her degree in social work. Having grown up in the foster care system, Destiny wanted to create programming designed specifically for youth in care, to address their needs, and provide culturally appropriate intervention based on their unique lived experience, and in response to the lack of culturally sensitive services for Indigenous Youth in care. This Indigenous youth-lead project is the first of its kind in Montreal.
