A Communityworks initiative, Success of All Youth (SAY) prioritizes the needs of children and young people in our community. With leadership from social service agencies, faith-based organizations, business and civic leaders, public libraries and parks, SAY's partners work to ensure that all children reach their potential, with particular attention paid to those who live in marginalized communities.
Mental health was identified as a vital issue through community surveys and consultations conducted in 2020, and continues to be a significant need for our community's young people. The Communityworks Advisory Board most recently awarded grants to organizations that support our young people with a mental health focus.
Today Communityworks is continuing to evolve SAY’s mission and programming to meet the needs of our region’s youth. Together with the Foundation and the Communityworks Advisory Board, SAY’s stakeholders are nimble and responsive to the community’s most pressing concerns, to meet the diverse developmental needs of our children - from infancy to young adulthood.
