Interview with Shari Okeke for Daybreak on CBC Radio

West Island YMCA's Youth Zone feels like family

“When I asked Kiara about the Youth Zone, I thought she'd list off her favourite activities. Instead, she told me about a heartbreaking moment that happened three years ago,” said Shari Okeke.

Kiara Raymond, 14, has gained confidence and come out of her shell since joining De-Zone Youth Zone at the West Island YMCA: "I want to see myself as I am but not to be judged."
