It's new, hip and just for youth. Here, at the Children's Aid Society of Ottawa, We are always looking for ways to positively connect with our youth in care. We have found that way with the Youth Corner.
Youth now have their own space to share thoughts and to find out important information regarding policies, rights and decisions that affect their lives. Here they can explore the various options available to youth in care to get involved in decision making-processes. You can see the new site if you click here. |
