The CFPSA youth project team is pleased to announce the launch of www.connectingcfyouth.ca. This web-based initiative went live in early summer, after more than one year of development work with youth.
Intended to address a need expressed by youth from CF families, the website creates a virtual community designed by youth, for youth. Important information on issues such as deployment, relocation, health promotion, and location specific information, is available at their fingertips.
The website features a balanced mix of adult-conceived information, youth written reviews, and personal experience testimonies. The site enables CF youth to meet virtually and connect with other CF youth, from across the country and around the world.
For more information on this exciting initiative, please contact Lara Rooke, National Recreation and Youth Services Coordinator at rooke.lara@cfpsa.com or 613-992-4642, or Nadine Rouleau, French Youth Website Information Specialist at rouleau.nadine@cfpsa.com or 514-278-2979.
