YMCA Community Action Network

The YMCA Community Action Network (YCAN) is an innovative national program that engages leaders across Canada to address community needs through service projects. The program, which is part of theĀ Canada Service Corps initiative, supports youth with opportunities to identify and execute a local service project that is meaningful to them.

YCAN is a good fit for you if:

  • You are between the ages of 15-30

  • You are a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or person who has been granted refugee status in Canada

  • You are passionate about learning new skills, building community connections, and making a difference in your community

In September 2023, the YMCA YCAN (YMCA Community Action Network) cohort ran an amazing local event. BEAHWARE, brought the community together to contribute to address the homelessness situation in Prince George through care packages and participation in an art project called Awareness Tree.

The group of youth invested over 100 hours to make this event possible. We are so proud of their work!
