Focus Forward For Indigenous Youth Details
Focus Forward's mission is to collaborate with Indigenous communities across Canada, empowering youth through locally developed trades-based education to strengthen Individuals' and communities' futures.As program facilitators, we provide Indigenous students with the opportunity to develop hands-on skills by working on community projects from start to finish. Project specifics are strategically selected by the community, ensuring each community can find their unique solution. In constructing the project, students will gain hands-on work experience, obtain high school credits and earn apprenticeship hours. Throughout the process, students will cultivate leadership skills, work ethic, and a sense of confidence that will help them focus forward—toward a positive and engaged future. As a not-for-profit organization, Focus Forward assists in the development of solutions and helps bring them to life.These programs are an opportunity to re-engage and empower the youth through hands-on learning opportunities that can invoke a passion they never knew existed. They will require the collaboration of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people, tradespeople, developing youth, generous sponsors and partners within the community that are involved. Throughout this process, we aim to foster an appreciation for other people's perspectives and culture and to create empathy from everyone. To tackle complex housing and food challenges faced by numerous communities throughout Canada, our approach cannot be ordinary. Drawing on innovative and sustainable technologies, we can implement solutions that will create lasting change. At Focus Forward, our collaboration with the communities is just the beginning – we make sure whatever solution we helped implement remains functioning to the exact standard desired by the community.
