We have the amazing opportunity this year to have positions for Youth Engagement Coordinators at the Multicultural Youth Centre. I am really excited to be involved. I think it is almost a dream for us to have the support of an organization that I love so much and have thought was powerful and inspiring for a long time. I've believed in the potential of the organization from my heart and I have seen it grow so large and there have been so much good and so many benefits that come of it. I am open to any ideas from young people and motivated to dedicate my time and energy to the creating local connections project.

The principles that guide me and what the youth centre has taught me give me so much hope. It's great how we've been encouraged to be creative and proactive. I am growing with every new opportunity and find it beneficial to find pockets of youth with similar interests. Art in Thunder Bay can be a tool to express our feelings as young people. There are so many organizations that can work with us on our pursuits that I feel support in every aspect of my dreams. It is now up to us to make it happen and we can do it!
