Official Connecting CF Youth Website Launch

Official Connecting CF Youth Website Launch

We are pleased to announce the official launch of the www.connectingcfyouth.ca website.

Beginning in February, youth advisory committees at all CF locations were invited to host local events to celebrate the launch of this amazing website. Representatives from each location were encouraged to register their local event at www.connectingcfyouth.ca/forum. Once registered, a launch kit containing promotional items, including t-shirts and water bottles, was sent to them. The launch kits also contained helpful information to support youth in planning and implementing their event(s).

All locations that completed the three step registration and reporting process were entered into a draw for $1,000, to be used to support local youth programs. Two smaller draws were also held.

The National Youth Project Team is pleased by the significant participation of local youth advisory committees in the launch of this website. As always, support for the implementation of the Canadian military community National Youth Model, and its initiatives, is greatly appreciated.

Any questions related to the official launch of the “Connecting CF Youth” website can be directed to Lara Rooke, National Recreation and Youth Services Coordinator at rooke.lara@cfpsa.com or Dean McCuaig, Policy Development and Research Manager at mccuaig.d3@forces.gc.ca
