Developing Agency, Identity and Belonging in Young People
This funding opportunity is intended to support programs that provide safe, welcoming spaces for young people to develop trusted relationships outside of school or home. It supports programs that help young people who identify as BIPOC, LGBTQIA2S+ or members of other groups facing inequities, feel a sense of belonging, community and connection. It will also provide these young people with greater access to programs informed by and responsive to their cultural backgrounds, helping them build the characteristics needed to navigate adverse circumstances and feel a sense of agency regarding their physical and mental well-being.
