Youth in Transition: Obstacles and Potential in the Kootenays April 21, 2016 Sarah-Patricia Breen

Project Overview 1. What are the key relationships between youth and regional development? 2. What are the critical issues related to training, retention, and engagement that face rural youth? 3. What action is needed to address youth training, engagement, and retention from a regional scale?

Overview: Literature Learning from others:  Get them early and often  Engagement matters  Encourage them to leave - give them a reason to return  Multiple, collaborative efforts  Focus on assets and opportunities Key factors:  Evidence  Change & Flexibility  Place & Context  Inclusivity  Collaboration

Consultation Findings Active Engagement Easy Access Reducing Challenges Improving Perceptions and Narratives Change & Adaptation

Challenges – Part 1 Earlier is better  Avoid creating “floaters” Individual challenges  When we hear workforce development we think training and job experience but… Institutional and other overarching challenges  ‘A’ for effort, ‘D’ for execution

Challenges – Part 2 Engagement Education Training Employable youth with potential for repatriation Perceived versus underlying challenges What’s missing?

Opportunities Current + Up and Coming Initiatives  Youth asset mapping  Enhancing and connecting service providers “We really need…”  A liaison between institutions  Consolidated access to information  Ground transportation  A range of opportunities  To work together
