Haliburton County Youth Wellness Hub

Welcome to the Haliburton County Youth Wellness Hub!

Located in beautiful Haliburton County, the Haliburton County Youth Wellness Hub is located close to schools, the skate park, and downtown Haliburton.

We are a safe, welcoming space providing integrated youth services for young people all across Haliburton County aged 12 to 25 and their families looking for mental health care, substance use support, and more. The Youth Hub brings together local community partners who are committed to working in a new collaborative and innovative way.

These services are integrated with a wide range of other youth services. The goal is to provide the right services in the right place at the right time.
