HERE’S HOW THE AUTHORS DESCRIBE THIS FACTSHEET:

The content for this factsheet was taken from Doing Right Together for Black Youth: What We Learned from the Community Engagement Sessions for the Ontario Black Youth Action Plan.

Between March and July 2017, Ontario’s Ministry of Children & Youth Services (MCYS) conducted 15 community engagement sessions to inform the Ontario Black Youth Action Plan. Over 1,500 community members participated in the engagement sessions. The MCYS shared anonymized data (without any identifying personal information) captured at these community engagement sessions, as well as written submissions, with YouthREX to analyze, interpret, and summarize.

This factsheet summarizes the top 10 issues affecting Black youth and their families from this analysis.
