We are thrilled to share that 9 incredible youth-led and youth-serving organizations, including one LGBTQI-led organization and 2 organizations led by People Living with Disabilities, have successfully completed inclusive professional training programs!

These programs have taken a forward-thinking and holistic approach to skill development, covering a diverse range of disciplines. From Computer Sciences, unlocking opportunities in the digital world, to practical and economically impactful skills like Sewing, Breadmaking, and Milk Manufacturing.

This initiative goes beyond just equipping youth with practical skills. It also aims to foster a sense of inclusivity and empowerment among marginalized communities. By addressing the unique needs of LGBTQI individuals and those living with disabilities, we are actively contributing to the creation of a more equitable and inclusive society.

Kudos to all the organizations involved and a huge shoutout to CERC for spearheading this amazing initiative! Let’s continue to support and uplift marginalized communities, together.
