Hi there! I’ve been an MSYP for two terms now. I am passionate about youth & community empowerment and involving young people in community. I think it’s important that young people have a say in the activities in their community.
I wanted to become a MSYP as I want to ensure that young people within Maryhill and Springburn had a real voice and seat at the table.
