As mandated by the MoCreebec Eeyoud Council, volunteer youth from the community of Moose Factory mobilized themselves into The MoCreebec Youth Working Group with the following 4 goals:
1. Gather input from the Youth of our community on the types of programs and services they would like to see offered
2. From the data taken, secure funding to offer these programs and services
3. Develop a Terms of Reference, Objectives, and Election Procedures for a Youth Council
4. Hold elections for Youth Chief and Deputy Youth Chief
The MoCreebec Youth Working Group is proud to announce that funding has been secured from Ontario Trillium Foundation. So look out for our Monthly Calendar for programs and special events coming soon!
*Please note that the MoCreebec Youth Working Group is not the Youth Council and operates strictly on a volunteer basis and its members are comprised of volunteer youth from the ages of 13-35. We welcome youth to join us as we work together to create positive change in our community and provide more opportunities for the Youth of MoCreebec to get involved.
Volunteers always needed as we move on to our final goals which is #4 Hold Elections, we urge all Youth to participate in the upcoming MoCreebec Youth Council Elections.
It is our mission to work together with and for the MoCreebec Youth to deliver and create programs and services that will empower the youth to be future leaders of our community, ensuring that our culture, heritage and language are passed on by working with the elders of our community. We will strive for positive change and a better future for our youth.
