A sexual health program for youth in the Northwest Territories is getting a big boost.

The territory's MP Michael McLeod announced $1 million in funding over five years for FOXY (Fostering Open eXpression among Youth) and SMASH (Strength, Masculinities, and Sexual Health) on Tuesday.

"Organizational stability is ... kind of the holy grail of working at a non-profit," said Nancy MacNeill, co-founder and facilitator for FOXY and SMASH.
