Programs

YLC offers compassionate support for those facing grief or trauma, guiding them toward hope, healing, and stronger, connected communities.

At YLC, we know loss, trauma, and crisis can feel overwhelming. Healing begins with being truly heard and supported—and that’s what we provide.

Be Heard. Be Supported. Find Stability.

We offer a safe, empathetic space to share, grieve, and feel understood, helping families regain balance and confidence.

Connect with Resources. Navigate Your Journey.

We guide families to counseling, support groups, and community resources, ensuring no one faces trauma alone.

Grow Stronger. Heal Together. Build Community.

Beyond immediate care, we provide tools, education, and programs that foster resilience, helping families heal together and communities thrive.

At Your Life Counts, we support families and individuals navigating grief, trauma, and emotional challenges. We are not a crisis service—anyone in immediate crisis should contact emergency services or a local crisis centre (numbers are at the top of every page). We listen with compassion, connect families to counseling, support groups, and community resources, and provide tools to build resilience and coping skills. Through outreach, workshops, and ongoing guidance, YLC fosters healing, strengthens connections, and offers encouragement and hope, helping families move forward with confidence and lasting emotional strength.
