#YouthREXat10 Event Series
The Youth.
The Work.
The System.
YouthREX is celebrating the 10th year of a shared commitment to supporting the important work of Ontario youth programs and youth workers in advancing the wellbeing of young people.
To commemorate #YouthREXat10, we’re hosting a three-part online event series – The Youth, The Work, The System. We recognize that youth wellbeing is interconnected to what is happening with youth, within youth work, as well as within larger systems. Together, we’ll explore the practices and challenges of youth work and the contexts that shape young people’s lives.
Register for one or all three events; please note that you must register for each of the three events that you would like to attend. Events will take place on Zoom; closed captions in English will be available and presentations and performances will be recorded.
