Youth Advisory Circle

The Youth Advisory Circle is composed of dedicated Indigenous youth affiliated with IYMP. Youth Advisory Circle members are representatives of Indigenous communities from across Canada that have been part of IYMP in some capacity, either as a high school mentor or program leader.
 

Youth advisory members build relationships with their school and community, high school mentors, program leaders, and the larger IYMP team by fostering connections and guiding the programming. The IYMP Youth Advisory Circle brings community and youth voices to the leadership team.

Sabrina Wichert

Program Leader

Hello! My name is Sabrina Wichert, and I was born in Winnipeg Manitoba, but I have lived in Edmonton Alberta for most of my life. I was the first youth mentor on IYMP’s Youth Advisory Circle (YAC), and within YAC, I have worked on projects, met many amazing people, and continue to brainstorm ways to improve the program! Some of my hobbies include sports like basketball, soccer, track, army cadets, and art! I am on track to attend the Royal Military College after I graduate high school, to obtain a political science degree and to become an officer. However, I do want to continue advocacy work and standing up for what I believe in! I stay healthy for myself! Working on, and protecting the body I have now, are the steps to becoming who I want to be.
