4 Korners Family Resource Center is especially pleased to have launched Taking Our Place, a new project to mobilize and empower English speaking youth in the Laurentians.
The English-speaking youth population in the Laurentians is declining, partially due to lack of employment opportunities and a lack of opportunity to get involved in their communities. As part of a strategy to retain our youth, the program Taking our Place was launched this October by the 4 Korners Family Resource Center. A committee of young adults representing various areas of the Laurentians have come together to form a working committee to organize a youth forum which will take place on March 15th, 2008 in the Laurentian area�venue to be announced shortly. The purpose of the forum will be to give youth a voice and allow them to discover and present their perspective on what could be done in the Laurentians to support youth and their initiatives. This forum will also launch the Laurentian Youth Network which we hope will continue to exist and act as a catalyst to get youth involved in their communities.
