Executive Director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lanark County Jennifer Miller says the landscape has changed for today’s youth, and it’s more challenging ever.
Speaking to the five youth centres offered throughout the County, Miller was asked if she’s noticing a shift in the younger generation following the pandemic.
Miller says their programs and services are more important now than ever before.
Attendance at these centres has also been steadily rising. There’s been nearly 10,000 visits in 2023 already, with three months still to go.
