Getting Started

Context Statement:

The future of our region relies on our children and youth and how they are supported during their formative years. Newcomers are also integral to our region’s future. They contribute to its cultural richness, economic vibrancy, and are an essential source of labour and skills. Our ability to welcome and integrate these newcomers into our communities is critical to their well-being and to the cohesiveness of our region.

List of Proposed Indicators:

  1. Net migration
  2. Youth unemployment rate
  3. Number of licensed child care centres
  4. Proportion of Students Eligible for Graduation who Graduate
