Foundry Councils

LED BY THE VOICES OF OUR YOUTH AND FAMILIES

Foundry’s goal is to ensure young people find the support, services and connections they need for their wellness to take shape. Achieving this requires leaders to be knowledgeable, willing, able and motivated to consciously lead the Foundry vision to transform how young people and their families find the resources and support they need, both online and in their communities.

To ensure the voices and perspectives of youth and families guide the design and development of Foundry Snuneymuxw, we have a Youth Advisory Council and Family Advisory Council.

Our Youth and Family Advisory Councils:

• Provide leadership, advice and engagement on everything from design of the physical space to programming and services.

• Amplify client voices to ensure they are at the centre of planning, service

  delivery, hiring and centre priorities.

• Provide youth with leadership opportunities.

• May lead community engagement and awareness activities, such as events.

• Attend monthly meetings and receive an honorarium
