Title
Advocacy to Sustain Funding for At-Risk Youth Counselling
Recommendation
The Victoria Family Court & Youth Justice Committee recommends the Governance Committee recommends to the Capital Regional District Board:
That the CRD Board Chair send an advocacy letter to the Province to encourage renewed support for the Pacific Centre Family Services Association’s Mobile Youth Services Team (MYST) and its Crime Reduction and Exploitation Diversion (CRED) program, with consistent and sustainable funding for the MYST youth counsellor position in the very near future due to the critical and urgent work with vulnerable youth and their families with the CRD.
