How to get involved if you are a youth partner

Youth Expert Panel

The Youth Expert Panel is made up of youth between the ages of 15-30 who bring to light the challenges that youth face in the District of Sudbury and Manitoulin. It is run by two elected co-chairs.

Members meet once a month to discuss future plans, strategize and provide feedback. The co-chairs report on matters discussed at the Board level, and the youth expert panel provide feedback.

Projects completed by the Youth Expert Panel:

  • Hope | Espoir Campaign
  • Redemption Ball: A Mask-erade
  • Multicultural Potluck
  • Northern Lights Festival Boreal booth 2022 and 2023
  • Redefining Success 2023
  • and many more

We are guided by the statement Nothing about us, without us. The upcoming months will be pivotal for us, as we are nearing the end of our time under the CBYF initiative umbrella.

TESTIMONIALS

“I really enjoyed the community building aspect of this project. It was nice getting to connect with other people in our community who are doing great work. I also really like the premise of the project. I think it’s so important for young people to hear these messages and to be exposed to different types of role models.”
