• 3 school districts reached through direct outreach

2.  what our Youth Activators say

"The micro internship was great, especially because I got to talk to someone who had a full time job other than my parents. It was really valuable to gain more insights on what types of programs and career paths there are here in Vancouver."

-pilot cohort 1 youth activator

"I will probably recommend this program to my friends. It has a lot of insightful advice for high school students, even if you're not planning to work in sustainability. It also gives you access to a lot of opportunities."
