Abbey has been involved in Jack.org programming as a delegate of regional and national Jack Summits, a Jack Talks speaker, planning the Northern regional Jack Summit, and now as one of 13 Network Representatives from across the country. Abbey is proud to represent Yukon youth in Jack.org programming. It’s important to her to ensure that youth voices are heard. She’s using that knowledge to make decisions that will best influence programming in the North. The experience Abbey has gained from her career as a youth worker in the North has given her a perspective that she’s excited to build upon in this role. Abbey’s mental health motto is “it is what it is.” In her spare time, you can find Abbey grabbing a coffee with her mom, watching Tiktok for hours, or jamming to 70’s bops.
