A'mut
A’mut is a culture-based, full-time attendance program helping aboriginal girls change the direction of their lives by learning to make healthy choices and develop new skills. Operated from a spacious house on a residential street in Surrey, A’mut is a four-bed residential program designed with the needs and interests of female Indigenous youth in mind. Offered as an alternative to incarceration, A’mut is staffed by a caring team of gender-responsive, trauma-informed professionals that includes a clinical counselor, an art therapist and a First Nations elder.
Practicum student shadows staff to learn and experience the day-to-day interactions with our population of self-identified female, Indigenous, adjudicated youth, the daily routines of the program and engage in the variety of activities offered.
