| Purpose: |
The 24-month project will develop/adapt approaches to engaging youth in violence prevention. Youth will identify the issues of violence affecting girls and young women in their communities, expand their knowledge of these issues, develop leadership skills, and deliver innovative youth-led projects to address the issues within their communities.
The target population will be boys and girls in grade 6 to 12, including immigrant and Aboriginal youth in Greater Vancouver, Vancouver Island, Okanagan and the Northern Region.
