“Youth Ottawa's for youth by youth model is working to turn the page on antiquated views on youth and bringing competent and compassionate young people to the forefront of change"
Ibrahim MusaYouth Ottawa Facilitator 
"I was approached by Youth Ottawa to work under their Summer Employment Program. This life-changing program provided me with an opportunity to work and grow WOKE Studios. They offered business training, support and skills development. I am currently working on a Business Model Canvas. An Entrepreneur in Residence meets with me and has become a strong mentor for me.

“Running the Youth Ottawa ACI has been so empowering for me because it led to more personal discovery about my skills, strengths, values and energy as a young social impactor. Creating brave spaces where students feel seen, heard and honoured is something this program has provided."
Brenda OkorogbaYouth Ottawa facilitator & program participant 
“Without AMP and Youth Ottawa's investment in me, I do not think I would have been nearly as well equipped as I now am to direct ULPC and understand my value as an artist. Youth Ottawa has provided me with the tools to understand ULPC from a business perspective in ways that I was able to answer, but never knew what questions I was answering"
