Calling all youth perspectives!

The Town of Stony Plain is conducting a survey of youth aged 11-17, called the Developmental Assets Profile. This survey focuses on understanding the strengths and supports (assets) young people have and need in their lives. By gathering insights directly from youth we can better ensure that the services we provide support their success in life.

Assess the survey here - Developmental Assets Profile

Community Helpers Program (CHP)
What? In every community there are people whom others naturally turn to for support. They are from all walks of life and are considered by others to be helpers. Helpers possess characteristics like empathy, care, and compassion. The Community Helpers Program identifies these helpers and offers training to strengthen their natural abilities. Helpers learn a variety of topics and skills including effective communication, self-care, coping with stress, knowing when to refer people to professional services, handling crisis situations, and suicide awareness. In addition to developing skills and increasing knowledge, Helpers are introduced to community services and professional supports. This connection bridges informal and formal support in the community, enabling helpers to refer peers and family to expert support when needed.
