Purpose : |
Sea to Sky Community Services Society will implement Positive Action, an evidence-based program, to reduce problematic and criminal behaviour among Aboriginal children and youth at risk in four schools within the Sea to Sky Corridor of British Columbia. The project activities are designed to address risk factors including aggressive behaviour, negative peer association, inadequate parental supervision, lack of attachment to school/community, and substance use/abuse.
The primary target group for this project is vulnerable Aboriginal children (ages 6 to 11) and high-risk youth (ages 12 to 18) who attend Head of the Lakes School, Pemberton Secondary School, Signal Hill Elementary School and Xit'olacw Community School.
