Engagement Platforms
Our community engagement programs are comprised of:
-
We engage with community leaders, public institutions, and other relevant stakeholders in policy discussions in areas such as police and community partnerships, the role of sports in community building, youth, and mental health.
-
We facilitate and moderate stakeholder engagement sessions, focus groups, and discussion sessions for youth and their parents. We specialize in providing culturally sensitive spaces for youth and their families.
-
We facilitate youth advisory committees to ensure that youth voices are reflected in city programs and policies.
