About Us
Nanaimo Youth Services Association (NYSA) is a community impact organization and charitable society. We have provided a range of residential and non-residential services to vulnerable youth in the Nanaimo Regional District since our incorporation in 1969.
Over the last half century, the Association has grown into being an integrated youth serving organization under the governance of our volunteer board members who represent and are recruited from a broad cross-section of our community.
NYSA's mission is to provide learning opportunities and support to youth so that they can succeed on their path to independence, while acknowledging that individuals are affected by their physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
Approximately 45% of the youth population that NYSA serves are on- and off-reserve Indigenous young people.
Over the years, NYSA has been recognized with a number of community and social service awards.
