Care Beyond Care Campaign
The Care Beyond Care Campaign (CBCC) is about building awareness of supports for youth leaving government care. Every Wednesday, the Fed’s communications channels are dedicated to CBCC and profile a key resource.
BC Child & Youth in Care Week
Fed youth members were a driving force behind the launch of BC Child and Youth in Care Week in 2011. Every year since, the Fed has worked as a major partner with youth, adult allies, and community agencies to organize a week-long celebration of BC’s amazing children and youth in care.
“Having an organization like the Fed makes a huge difference in connection. I think it’s beautiful to connect with those that have been through the same trials as you in life, and to share it in a safe environment is healing in some way. I find that I belong there.”
