Child Welfare 2021 Youth Action Fund

Building Up – Readiness Building and Navigating Transitions Survival Guide

Funded Amount: $100.00000
The goal of the project is for the Capacity Building Navigation Guide to be used by lived experts, child welfare organizations and youth serving organizations, with the potential to be used nation-wide as an accessible tool. It will be developed by hired lived experts, and will translate what they have heard throughout the Readiness Indicators work into a usable tool to increase the confidence and successful outcomes of lived experts. The tool will be a source of self-guided education that can champion self-empowerment, self-actualization and also be used by organizations and agencies in order to co-design and build capacity of youth they serve. The development of this tool will be informed by approximately 100 young people through the provincial work and member-reviewed by the lived expert broader community, both provincially and on a national level.
