CYH is a youth-driven organization. We provide education, resources, training and support for youth to live as engaged and active citizens within our local and global communities.
We create opportunities to develop critical analysis, hope and tools for action on issues such as democracy, corporate power, public health care, climate change, food security/sovereignty, the media and more.
Our work is motivated by the understanding that a healthy, democratic and sustainable future depends on a generation of informed, empowered and active young people.
Since CYH was founded in 1999, we have delivered over 1,800 workshops to well over 55,000 youth participants in BC, across Canada and internationally.
