Hi, I’m Diya (they/them)! I’m a 21-year-old youth advocate for marginalized youth in the GTA and I’ve been involved with The New Mentality since the ninth grade. Through TNM, many opportunities arose for me to enact change through a critical and intersectional-informed lens of the mental health system and its’ many barriers and strengths. DTL has been transformational for me and I can’t wait to meet and learn from all the youth attending this year! In my free time, I enjoy baking, writing music, and watching movie/show commentaries on Youtube— please come and chat with me about our shared interests or differences!
