YMCA Next Stop Canada

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!

March of Dimes Canada is a leading national charity committed to championing equity, empowering ability, and creating real change that will help the more than six million people living with disabilities across the country unlock the richness of their lives. We serve, connect, and empower people living with disabilities to participate fully in life — on their own terms. Our work is grounded in the voices of the people we serve, built on a foundation of service, and backed by a 70-year history of success. We’ve proven time and again our dedication to addressing the ongoing and urgent needs of people living with disabilities, as well as their families and caregivers. Born in the last great public health epidemic, we know that seemingly-impossible goals can be achieved and barriers can be broken. In the 1950s, March of Dimes Canada helped in the global effort to find a cure for polio. We’ve since evolved to become a recognized leader in disability service design and delivery, supporting people at home, work, and in their communities with unparalleled reach and impact. Now, inspired and guided by our community, we’re expanding our horizons even further. Together with our clients, partners, supporters, and allies, we are working to create communities in which people living with disabilities can not only live, but thrive in all they aspire to do.
