Huddle Selkirk
At our youth hub, you take the lead
We’re a warm, vibrant social space that offers free counseling, addictions support, cultural healing and ceremony, primary care (seeing a doctor or nurse about your physical and sexual health), youth employment services, recreation, and more. Stop in, grab a coffee, charge your phone, relax and stay awhile. Here, you’re empowered to make your own choices toward the care you want, when you want it. We want you to feel comfortable and respected, free from judgment and misunderstanding.
We are passionate advocates for our Indigenous communities and their wellness, but we welcome all of our surrounding neighbours to Huddle.
What we do
There are so many free events and programs you can join at Huddle Selkirk! You’ll find mental health counselling, youth employment services, ping pong and video games, Indigenous healing ceremonies, group activities like board games and self-care activities, and so much more. Check out our event calendar to see what’s coming up!

Hello, my name is Gertrude Johnson, and I am from Peguis First Nation. I have joined the team at Huddle Selkirk as the Mental Health Wellness and Support Worker. I support children, youth and young adults through direct culturally appropriate promotion, prevention and treatment services within the mental health system. Using a holistic indigenous informed lens supports individuals towards their goals for better health and well-being allowing them to work on their emotional, mental, spiritual and physical well-being. I am pleased to be a part of the Huddle Selkirk team and look forward to meeting and working with you all.
At Huddle, youth have a safe space to be authentically themselves. We welcome and respect people of all sexual orientations, gender identities, ethnicities, faiths, race/nationalities, and abilities.
We empower all youth, families, and service providers to show the same respect to others and to celebrate each other’s differences
Get Involved
Create positive change in your community and lead by example! If you’re between the ages of 12 and 29, come join our Youth Advisory Council—we’d love to have you. You’ll get the chance to help plan events, make decisions for our youth-led programming, and provide mentorship to other youth seeking support.
We also have openings available on our Family Advisory Council, to help shape the programs and services we offer for the caregivers and caring adults who support youth.
Our youth hubs are located on Treaty 1 and Treaty 2 territories. These lands on which we gather are the traditional territories of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Anisininew, Assiniboine, Dakota, and Dene Peoples, and the birthplace of the Métis Nation.
