L Project – Leadership Building for Young Women is a training for 20 young women, ages 16-24, from across Canada. L Project is for young women who are passionate about an issue in their community and want to learn the skills to get involved in making a difference. For 7 days, 20 girls from across the country will be getting together to do activities and workshops about how to organize, plan events, talk to the media, report on projects, change policies and change their world! Afterward, we will be participating in PCN/FA’s National Network Retreat, where we will do skill-building workshops, intergenerational networking, sharing projects and knowledge and more!
