The Alliance to End Homelessness in the Capital Region (AEHCR) is proud to shine a spotlight on the upcoming Flourishing Children and Youth Program Fair, organized by the Collaborative for Youth and Society (CFYS). Scheduled for Thursday, May 9, this annual event serves as a beacon of hope and opportunity for youth, families, and community stakeholders alike.

Please note below the details:

The Collaborative for Youth and Society (CFYS) is hosting the third annual Flourishing Children and Youth Program Fair on Thursday, May 9. As you can see below, we offer this year three discussion panels, including a youth-led panel (like last year) and two workshops in collaboration with the CRD-Community Health Network.

We are inviting all youth- and family-serving organizations and educators to present and showcase community- and school-based programs or initiatives, as well as youth-led projects, that support children, youth, young adults and their families. If you have attended our previous program fairs, you are encouraged to apply again. There is no cost to apply or present, but spots are limited.

Please indicate your attendance at the Program Fair by May 2, 2024 through the CFYS Flourishing Children and Youth Program Fair Registration Form. Please share the link with anybody from your organization who may attend the program fair with you.
