This new department came into existence in October 2020, and was created to support NCN families and young adults. It currently offers support in three areas:

• The Parent Coach Program provides one-on-one assistance and guidance to new parents, or to parents who need additional support after completing the Family Enhancement Program. There is a special focus on reconnecting with culture and traditional teachings.
• In-home respite workers care for children and provide play therapy while parent coaches work with the client.
• The Youth Mentor Program assists young adults in preparing for adulthood and the transition to the workforce. Services include resume and cover letter writing, obtaining legal identification, and work experience guidance.

The Special Projects Program has also provided community events such as ID Fairs, youth ball hockey, activity nights and colouring contests.
