YOUTH NETWORK
3:45 – 4:45
Room: Muskoka II
The workshop will continue to introduce/unpack the idea for Youth Advocate networks beginning to be implemented across our movement. There will be discussion about the networks themselves as well as a look into how they fit into some larger plans for developing and equipping youth and young leaders. And there will be discussion about next steps we need to take.
