BlackYouthforSocialInnovation

The Black Youth for Social Innovation (BYSI) program, is helping to address a disparity in mentorship opportunities available to Black youth. The program is made up of 10 students, along with their mentors and it continues to grow.

The program's Midpoint Symposium, was held at the Timms Centre for the Arts, on July 22 and brought together mentors, mentees, educators and community leaders, to showcase their collaborative efforts. Young leaders who are making significant change in Edmonton were recognized at the event.
