Funding for the Youth Diversion Kairos Councilors

I was pleased to join my colleague Todd Smith at the Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board to announce $144,700 funding for the Youth Diversion Kairos councilors through the Ontario Trillium Foundation Resilient Communities Funding. These councilors help youth dealing with the impacts of addiction and substance abuse in local high schools. This is a fantastic resource that provides convenient access for students seeking assistance.

The HPEDSB Superintendent of Student Services, Ken Dostaler and Youth Diversion Executive Director Shawn Quigley joined us.
