McCreary Centre Society is a non-government not-for-profit committed to improving the health of BC youth through research, evaluation and community-based projects. Our vision is that all youth are supported to be healthy and connected.
Following the release of Blunt Talk III: Cannabis use among BC youth aged 12-18, McCreary's Youth Advisory and Action Council have created a poster of their key findings for a youth audience. The poster is available in English and French.
McCreary is now hiring youth to join Cohort 10 of the Youth Research Academy (YRA). As part of the YRA, youth will be supported by McCreary staff to learn community-based research skills, and will work on research projects focused on the health of youth in and from government care.
In honour of Youth in Care week, McCreary's Youth Research Academy (YRA) released the report Supports in the spotlight II: Supporting BC youth in and from government care. Download the report here.
