“To the young people of the DYP who might experience some of the same pitfalls as him, Samuel Coulombe has only one message. ‘You didn’t choose your past, but you can choose your future. Don’t think you weren’t designed to be successful. On the contrary, you must prove that you are the exception. And eventually, we will be able to change people’s perceptions.’”
This is the message of hope and inspiration that Samuel wishes to convey to the young people of the DYP. Building a stable and fulfilling life is possible!
In an interview with La Presse, he looks back on a life journey that did not begin under favorable circumstances and tries to sensitize the community to their power of their impact.
