The North End Community Renewal Corporation (NECRC) operates under gudiance of its community members, resident associations, local businesses, faith based and cultural organizations. These partners have an eqaul opportunity to provide their opinions on needs in the North End which is then compiled into a report. This report, the 5 Year North End Community Plan, is set to expire, with the new report guiding NECRC from 2016-2021. We (Youth) were identified as the number one priority of the North End in the previous 2011-2016 report, and such want to encourage you all to support the youth of the North End for the upcoming period. To further enhance youth participation in this process, the North End Youth Council is holding an event at the Indian & Metis Friendship Centre (45 Robinson Street) on Tuesday November 24th from 4:30-7pm (doors open at 4pm) to celebrate, and also to receive feedback from the community. This event will be hosted by Jenna Liiciious, with guest performers Prairie Grass Drum, William Prince and Nealon Almario. As a special gift to those who attend, the first 100 youth to sign-up and complete the survey process will receive $5. There will be a light dinner served and childcare provided. While this event is catered towards youth from 15-24, all ages are welcome and encouraged to attend. Please note that the $5 honorarium will only be provided to youth. If you are unable to attend, you can fill out the survey on the NECRC website. You can also download your own copy of the 11″x17″ poster here....
