Recently someone made a suggestion through our web page as follows:

"don't force the kids to go - some don't wanna be fixed !"  This is a tough one.  Some youth are required to be at Youth Diversion, either due to a court or police referral, or due to a suspension from school.    Others may be required by a parent to attend, but many are involved in Programs like Rebound because they want to be.  And, we really don't "fix" kids.  What we try to do is give them the tools to change the way they behave.  It is up to them whether they use the tools or not.

"do more comunity activity/fundraising so that you can advertise and promote your services"

Well, we heard and we listened.  We are planning a community education event in mid April in celebration of Law Week, and we will be highlighting our services in this very public event.

Then, around fundraising, we have been given the oppportunity to raise money and awareness at one of Ontario's largest hockey tournaments, th Kids for Kids tournament.

Finally, we are planning a major fundraising event for early June.  Details should be available on the website early next week.

So, keep the suggestions coming!
