Young people in Thompson will soon have a new place to access free support.

Huddle Thompson is scheduled to open in March 2027 at BGC Thompson, formerly the Boys and Girls Club.

The site will connect youth ages 12 to 29 with coordinated health and social supports in a welcoming environment.

BGC Thompson and Manitoba Keewatinowi Okimakanak will co-lead the site, working with community partners to offer services tailored to local needs, including cultural and land-based activities.

The province is providing 400-thousand dollars annually for the site.

According to the City of Thompson, it will be the first Huddle serving northern Manitoba.
