As an organization driven by the desire to educate and empower children and youth around the world, we were excited to join a highly respected and influential group at Queen’s Park on Monday morning to officially launch Feathers of Hope: A First Nations Youth Action Plan. This report from Ontario’s Advocate for Children and Youth includes three main recommendations and a series of ‘steps to make hope real’ as outlined by 160 youth from 64 of Ontario’s northern First Nations communities.
