BURLINGTON, ON

 

Community Development Halton is holding a meeting where youth researchers will share insights from their Youth Engagement Research Project.

The volunteers (14-24 years old) were trained to research what makes it difficult to get involved in volunteering.  What are the obstacles and the challenges they faced?

The province requires a mandatory 40 hours of volunteer time to graduate from high school. Intended to promote volunteering in youth, the program does not appear to have met its intentions.

During the event on the 30th, the public will hear what the students learned.
