Creating the Change We Want
O-YA is excited to announce a NEW program for youth in Osgoode in partnership with the Community Development Framework (CDF) called, 'Creating the Change we Want'. Creating the Change We Want is about creating positive change in our community. We will create the opportunities and teach youth the skills they need to get together to bring about positive change in their neighbourhoods and actively participate in decision-making that affects their lives.Over the course of 6 weeks, youth will cook dinner together, have discussions surrounding ways to be involved in the community and do leadership based activities. This program was created to give youth the opportunity to build leadership skills and be excited about getting involved in our community.
