COMMUNITY YOUTH LEADERS FROM SIX NATIONS, BRANTFORD AND CALEDONIA are enthusiastic about building bridges with youth of other backgrounds. The bonds they form make our communities more cohesive, inclusive and welcoming. The chief and council of Six Nations and the mayor and council of the City of Brantford declared November 8 "THE DAY OF BUILDING A COMMUNITY OF ALLIES" in honour of their work and in celebration of the Community Builders Ally Stories Book launch.

Sometimes just going to school can be a scary prospect. Community Builders youth leaders help build schools of allies! This can make a huge difference.

Teamwork is so satisfying and empowering. Community Builders Youth Leadership offers hope - a great antidote to the discouragement and alienation so many people feel.
