Canada’s only toll-free, 24-hour, bilingual and anonymous phone counselling, referral and Internet service for children and youth. Every day, professional counsellors provide immediate, caring support to young people in urban and rural communities across the country. The service is completely anonymous and confidential – we don’t trace calls, we don’t use call display. You don’t even have to tell us your name if you don’t want to.
The Canadian Wildlife Federation is dedicated to ensuring an appreciation of our natural world and a lasting legacy of healthy wildlife and habitat by informing and educating Canadians, advocating responsible human actions and representing wildlife on conservation issues.
Note: Scott Young Public is featured in one of the Canadian Wildlife Federation’s articles, entitled, “Where the Wild Things Are“. Click here to read the article.
