Weir Active

In 2023, Mike partnered up with another local professional athlete to build a physical activity component into the Sarnia-Lambton YWHO model.

It is well researched that physical activity has a positive effect on mental health and by taking a proactive approach to provide youth with free access to movement opportunities there is a possibility of preventing youth from getting in crisis situations.

Currently, a pilot Weir Active program is being run in conjunction with the services offered at the Sarnia-Lambton YWHO site with an aim to build out the model across the province.
