The Youth Take Charge Program aims to strengthen youth attachment to Canada through engagement. Our key expected results include youth being engaged in communities and aware of the importance of being an active and engaged citizen. In this context, youth is defined as individuals between 7 and 30 years of age. We support organizations delivering youth-led projects that exemplify the ability to strengthen youth attachment to Canada and involve activities in one or more of four thematic areas:
Arts and culture
Civic engagement and youth service
Economic activities
History and heritage
Eligible Applicants
A Canadian registered not-for-profit organization
A Canadian registered charitable group
An Indigenous representative organization
Have a minimum of three years of experience in serving youth on a significant national or provincial/territorial scale. This is defined by a number of factors, such as:

Have adequate security and safety policies and procedures in place demonstrating the nature and length of your experience in delivering youth programs
