INNER CITY YOUTH ALIVE (ICYA) is a registered charity in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Its mission is “to bring hope and a future through Christ to youth and their families in the inner city.” It works from 418 Aberdeen Avenue in the North End, which it describes as one of the poorest and most under-served areas in Winnipeg and Canada, with young people who often face poverty, abuse and neglect. ICYA names three values: local (working in the heart of the North End), relational (walking alongside each person through struggles and successes) and transformational (empowering local leaders).
