What Programs Should the New Glenforest Youth Hub Offer?
Official title: Glenforest Youth Hub
Mississauga is turning an old school pool building into a youth hub. They want to know what programs, services, and spaces local young people actually need. Your feedback will shape what gets built.
Why This Matters
Got teens in the Burnhamthorpe area? This hub could become their go-to spot after school. The programs offered will depend on what families ask for now. Plus, there's a chance to win AirPods just for taking the survey.
What Could Change
The former Glenforest Secondary School pool enclosure will be redesigned as a youth community hub. Programs and services will be tailored based on community input. The final design could include recreation spaces, study areas, or youth services depending on feedback.
Key Issues
- What programs and services should the youth hub offer?
- What types of spaces do local youth need?
How to Participate
- Complete the online survey before February 28 for a chance to win Apple AirPods.
- Attend an information session in February - options include a youth session, virtual session, or in-person resident session at Burnhamthorpe Community Centre.
- Learn more about the project on the Glenforest Youth Hub project webpage.
