Would you like to share a success at your site that you think others should know about? Do you have a story idea about the SNAP YJ program that everyone should read? Whether about staff or youth, we want to hear them!

As the people delivering our program, we want to include your voices and share the great work you’re doing. Please contact us and we’ll be happy to write the story on your behalf, or help you to write it up yourself to share with our provincial network of justice staff and professionals.
