COL President & CEO Professor Peter Scott recently joined Her Honour, the Honourable Wendy Cocchia, CM, OBC, Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia, at The King’s Trust Canada’s 15th anniversary celebration at Government House in Victoria.
Hearing young people share their stories was a powerful reminder of the importance of creating the conditions for them to thrive. Education is essential, but young people also need opportunities to build relevant skills, gain experience, grow their confidence, and make the transition into meaningful work.
At COL, we share this commitment to widening access, helping young people overcome barriers to education, develop job-ready skills and pursue pathways to employment and sustainable livelihoods.
Congratulations to The King’s Trust Canada on 15 years of creating opportunities for young people and helping them build stronger futures.
