Engaging and Planning with Youth.
At YEP! Youth Engagement Planning, we specialize in designing and implementing youth engagement activities that inform planning outcomes. Our approach involves working directly with youth to gather their input on the planning process, ensuring their voices are heard and valued. We then deliver the resulting outcomes and strategies to planners, who integrate this information into their plans.
By planning and implementing tailored youth engagement strategies for each project, we engage youth in meaningful ways, analyze their feedback, compile data, and develop project recommendations that truly reflect their input. Our mission is to design with youth, creating inclusive and impactful community plans.
