YCAN (Youth Community Action Networking) is a youth program located at the Robert Cotton Centre in Stratford that also serves in Charlottetown, Montague, and Summerside. The program assists youth to gather and identify issues in the community, choose one they would like to make a positive impact on, create a service project, and then put that project into action. The intent is to get teens more involved in their community and gain great employable skills! Multiple groups run each year with flexibility on start and end dates dependent on program needs. Please contact for more information!
