Community Assessment Report released

The CTC Community Board has released the Community Assessment report that outlines the results of the youth survey completed in the spring of 2009, along with a summary of other data that provides a picture of the well-being of youth in Williams Lake.

Positive Youth Development

We know that if we want children and youth to have healthy behaviours, we need to have clear standards for them so they know and understand what healthy behaviours are and what is expected of them. This needs to happen in families, schools, among their peers, and in the community. Youth need to feel like they belong (attachment and bonding) and have a sense of commitment to their family, school and community. So how do we value our children and youth, and encourage them toward positive behaviours? By giving them the skills and opportunities to behave positively and develop healthy bonds, and by giving them recognition when they do.
