The Government of Canada believes that creating opportunities for young people to become involved in youth-led activities in their communities will foster civic engagement and attachment to Canada.
Youth Take Charge (provisional name), announced on October 14, 2009, will provide support to established youth-service organizations with national or provincial/territorial reach to work with young people on projects in the fields of history and heritage, civic engagement and youth service, arts and culture, and economic activities.
Please stay tuned for more details on this new initiative.
