YouthCAN Presentation: Connecting Now to the Future Posted by Kristine Kofoed (2009/6/30) The YouthCAN Program was asked to present an outline of their program a recent conference in Montreal themed “Connecting Now to the Future”. The conference was geared toward discussing the transition to independent living among at risk youth. YouthCAN’s presentation focused on how youth in care say they need more support in place, not less. Furthermore, YouthCAN discussed how through effective and respectful adult-youth partnerships it is empowering youth to succeed. Please see the presentation to learn more about the YouthCAN model and program.
