[Advisors] VCN & Digital Skills 4 Youth - Program Recipient

[Tracey Axelsson]

Hi all - and I hope you're having a great summer


I am now able to announce that VCN will be leading the DS4Y program across
Western Canada.

This is the revised and renewed CAP/YIP youth internship program supported
by the federal government through ISED. This 2-year, $2.4 Million will see
us place 160 16-30 year old, under-employed, post-secondary educated youth
in their career building jobs.

Here's a link to the federal site announcing the program:
https://www.canada.ca/en/innovation-science-economic-
development/programs/digital-skills-for-youth.html


Can you help spread the word about the program -- we really want to ensure
this opportunity equitably work for youth  and the non-profits/small
businesses that would like to support them in the region.

Looking forward to getting this working for all.


all the best, Tracey
