Gold Star, A++

canada-calgaryEver wanted to grade Calgary on how well you think it’s doing?  I mean, you get graded all the time, why not turn the tables?

Child and Youth Friendly Calgary is actually working on a new project that will let you do just that.  It’s called Youth Vital Signs, and it will let you give your opinion on how Calgary is doing in areas like transportation, environmental friendliness, culture, education/learning, the arts, employment and youth spaces – all things that affect you! 

We know you probably have pretty strong opinions about at least one of these topics, and that’s why we’re asking for your help.  There’s a contest going on through the Aviva Community Fund in which we could potentially receive funds to get Youth Vital Signs on the move – all you have to do to help is go here and vote for Youth Vital Signs.  The ideas with the most votes get funding!

Youth Vital Signs has the potential to have a huge impact on the city – after you grade Calgary, the big movers, shakers and decision makers in the city will see what you have to say and this will help them to know what YOU think will make Calgary better for young people.  The adults in Calgary have had this chance before, and now it’s your turn.

Please vote!
