The City of Richmond is asking all youth aged 13 to 24, their family members, and those who work with youth to provide feedback on its Draft Youth Strategy—an important framework to support and meet the unique needs of Richmond youth over the next decade.
There are a number of ways people can comment on the strategy’s priorities and action plan. They include:
• Visiting LetsTalkRichmond.ca to review the draft strategy and complete the survey. The deadline to submit the survey is April 2 at 11:59 p.m.
• Connecting with the city’s roaming street teams that will be engaging with youth at various locations throughout Richmond. For dates, times, and location, follow @cityofrichmondyouth on Instagram or visit LetsTalkRichmond.ca/draftyouthstrategy.
• Attending a social night for youth and young adults aged 19 to 24 at a local Richmond venue. Attendees can participate in a discussion about the Draft Youth Strategy and with light refreshments served. For date, time, and location follow @cityofrichmondyouth on Instagram or visit LetsTalkRichmond.ca/draftyouthstrategy.
The city is also engaging with a number of key youth-serving organizations including community associations and societies, Richmond School District No. 38, Vancouver Coastal Health, Foundry Richmond, and non-profit groups to ensure input at this stage continues to be thorough.
Feedback collected through the engagement process will ensure the diverse perspectives and interests of youth and those supporting youth are represented in the final strategy before it is presented to city council later this year.
For more information, visit LetsTalkRichmond.ca, email youthservices@richmond.ca, or call 604‑276‑4000 and ask for the program lead, youth.
