This program has been created to support young people as they:

- Play a role in creating positive social change
- Prepare to be active citizens promoting diversity and advocating for refuge and immigrant rights

Details:

- Each scholarship is valued at $650.00 CAD
- Applications open August 10, 2021 and close September 20, 2021

The CCR Youth Network Core Team will review the applications and select applicants based on criteria along two streams: a) educational commitment and b) community engagement.
