About this Program
Aimed at youth new to Calgary or newcomer youth, Project Gen YYC will help provide them with resources to navigate the city and a behind-the-scenes look at the Calgary Police Service. The programs provides a safe space for youth to voice their thoughts and concerns.
Project Gen YYC aims to bring youth together in discussion forums, presentations and hands-on activities led by our trained program facilitators, with special presentations by CPS Units. Through this program, youth will be part of a larger discussion on racism and provided equity and inclusion resources.
