CAN YES (Youth Engagement Subcommittee)

The Community Action Network Youth Engagement Sub-committee (CAN YES), includes youth ages 13-24 years and front line workers from youth serving agencies in Elgin County.  All projects initiated by the CAN YES rely heavily on youth consultation, input and feedback. Encouraging youth to have a voice at community meetings, allows them to feel valued and recognized in their community. The partnership between youth and adults has been invaluable, allowing for advocacy and authentic engagement.

For more information on meeting dates and times, please contact Jessica Ross (jross@wellkin.ca) or Jenny Sager (jsager@ywcaste.ca)
