Prefer a Virtual session?
You can still access support remotely through Kickstand Connect — our free, virtual platform for young people across Alberta.
Need immediate support outside our open times?
The support you need doesn’t always follow a schedule. When Kickstand staff are unavailable, you can still speak with someone who cares. Through our partnership with Kids Help Phone, trained crisis responders are available to listen and support you whenever you need to talk. You’re not alone.
