    Arnell Mitchell

    Senior Youth Worker

    I have dedicated the past 3 years to CBFY with a passion for guiding youth toward success in their chosen paths. With a diverse background in social services and youth advocacy, I bring extensive experience in financial management, marketing, and a Diploma in Criminal Justice. Prior to CBFY, I spent 8.5 years at Alpha House shelter and 2 years at YWCA, where I provided housing and support to vulnerable homeless women struggling with addiction. These roles have equipped me with a profound understanding of the challenges faced by marginalized populations.
