Young people in Thompson will have a new place to turn for health care and support.

The Manitoba government has announced Huddle Thompson, a youth services site planned for BGC Thompson at 365 Thompson Drive.

It will bring mental health, addictions, primary care and social supports together in one location, with free services for people aged 12 to 29.

The goal is to make getting help easier, without having to navigate several different services.

BGC Thompson and Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak will co-lead the site.

The province’s announcement did not include an opening date.
